Parish Activities for Families

Family Activities – Additional activities to be added as scheduled

*Completing an activity log is a requirement for students enrolled in our Summer Program and Home Study Program. Activities on the log must come from the choices given here in order for this requirement to be complete.*

The due date for all activity logs is May 31, 2026. We strongly suggest taking a picture of the log following each stamp, in case it is lost. Logs are distributed to students on the last day of the Summer Program and at the time of Home Study materials pick-up.  You can also download and print them here:  Family Activity Log, Special Mass Reflection Sheet. Please do not submit the log or Mass reflections via email; everything must be handed in in hard copy format. Logs and any Mass reflections can be handed in to the office either in person, in our drop-off/pick-up bin (located right outside the front doors of the school facing the parking lot), or via mail to: St. Joan of Arc Religious Education Office, 101 Evans Road, Marlton, NJ 08053.

For Kids Lit, you attend Mass with your child (each child must have an adult there) and children are called to the altar prior to the readings by Msgr. Rich or Fr. JM. Kids Lit leaders bring the children to Pedata Hall from then until right before Communion so they can help to break open the readings.  Children are brought back to the church to rejoin their parents before Communion.  *Please see Melissa Eisenstock for your stamp. Please click here for additional information about Kids Lit.
