The South City PSR program provides formal Catholic religious education (Grade 1 to Confirmation prep). Sessions are on Monday evenings, September through May, 6:20 p.m.-7:40 p.m. The program is housed at 4170 Delor St. on the St. John the Baptist campus (corner of Newport and Delor). 

This program continues and supplements the religious formation from parents, who are the first teachers of their children in the ways of the faith. We assist families in the areas of knowledge of the faith, beliefs and Christian life skills and religious practices, and strengthening the growing relationship with Jesus and his Church.

First Reconciliation and First Communion are usually covered as part of the Grade 2 curriculum. We also have preparation for First Reconciliation and First Communion for students in grades 3-8. Students must be in the PSR program for two years in order to receive First Reconciliation and First Communion.

Confirmation is usually covered in Grade 8 and above. Students must be in the PSR program for two years (Pre-Confirmation and Confirmation classes) before being confirmed.
