Hispanic Ministry Parish School of Religion

Contact: Sister Emma Rueda, SCTJM Phone: 205-803-5422 Email: sisteremma@sfxbirmingham.com

The St. Francis Xavier Hispanic Ministry Parish School of Religion is a program at the service of Hispanic children and their families. In a BILINGUAL environment this program offers the children (Grades 2nd through 12th) the opportunity to study and deepen their knowledge of the Catholic Faith and to prepare for the Sacraments of Initiation (Baptism, Communion and Confirmation).

This program includes “El Rito de Iniciación Cristiana para Adultos” (RICA). It offers formation of the Catholic faith to non-Catholics and those with no formal Christian instruction, including those who may have been baptized Catholic but have not had the opportunity to participate in a faith formation program leading to First Communion and/or Confirmation.

Our Core Values

Learn more about our values and our story as a church by visiting the about us page.

We value the Lordship of Jesus Christ!

We acknowledge Jesus Christ as the head of our church and fully submit ourselves to His will. In every aspect of our ministry our goal is always to honor and glorify the Lord Jesus Christ.

We value Bible-centered Preaching and Teaching!

We believe the Bible is God’s inspired authoritative and trustworthy rule of faith and practice for Christians. Therefore, we submit ourselves to its teaching, commit ourselves to do what it says, and yield our lives to become what Christ desires for us to be.

We value Prayer!

We believe in the power of prayer. Therefore, the ministries and activities our church will be characterized by a reliance on personal and corporate prayer in all areas of our lives and ministry.

We value Evangelism and World Missions!

We believe in the Great Commission commanded to us by Jesus Christ and we are committed to reaching unsaved and unchurched people locally, nationally and worldwide. We will use every available Christ-honoring means to pursue, win and disciple the people in our sphere of influence.

We value the Family!

We believe God ordained the family to glorify him. We are committed to cultivate an atmosphere which promotes spiritual growth within the family by reaching families with the gospel, discipling them in Christ-like character and teaching each family member how to fulfill their God-given role.
