SPRED is the Archdiocese religious education program for children and adults with intellectual, developmental disabilities or other limitations. This inclusive environment supports the individual and family in knowing God’s love and participating in our faith life as Catholics.
At Queen of All Saints, we support a SPRED team for 11-16 year olds. Our ability to help and support our friends is driven by our catechists. This one-to-one relationship in our lessons help the friend know God’s love through word, music and movement. SPRED will also help prepare the friend and family to receive Sacraments.
If you are looking for a way to share your faith with the next generation, please consider joining us as an adult catechist at SPRED. If you are a parent and would be interested in SPRED for your child, reach out to us too!

SPRED Meetings are Monday evenings (6:15pm-8:00pm) during the school year. Our first session is planned for September 11 for Catechists and a Community meeting on September 18.
