Meet our Coordinator of Religious Education
I am Francesca Tamburello Puleo, the new CCD Coordinator for St. Francis Borgia. I’ve been a lifetime parishioner, a CCD teacher for the past 20 years, and a past Eucharistic Minister. I even dabbled in the choir years back.
For those who do not know me, I have four children, work in real estate, and live in Brookfield. I had my communion and confirmation here, and I have baptized all four of my children here. They have also had their Communion & Confirmation here
As a teacher and a parent of a student in the CCD Program, I have many ideas I would love to implement to enhance the program further.
I look forward to working with all the students and parents. When you see me in church, please say hi and introduce yourself. We are a community and family here.

WELCOME Students, Grades 1-8
St. Francis Borgia Religious Education Program aims to create a climate for faith development by providing a stimulating and supportive atmosphere in which a child is free to grow as a disciple of Jesus Christ. We believe in the power and relevance of Catholic religious education. Our Religious Education Program should lead our families to worship and prayer, participate in community-building efforts, and motivate our children to Catholic Christian living and service among the future adult Church.
Classes meet on Tuesday evenings from 6:30 p.m. to 8:00 p.m.
Rite of Christian Initiation for Adults (RCIA)
RCIA is designed for those considering joining the Catholic Church by celebrating the sacraments of initiation (Baptism, Confirmation, and Eucharist) at the Easter Vigil. The process welcomes adults who have never been baptized and those baptized in another Christian tradition.
RCIA at St. Francis Borgia Church is an engaging, respectful, challenging, and ENJOYABLE journey.
