Compostela 

The Compostela Catechetical After-School Program is unlike any program in Paterson, all children from kindergarten - 8th grade are welcome!

The word “Compostela” translates to “field of stars”. Stars are significant in the Word of the Lord because they represent the small luminaries which are gleams of light in the night sky. In a similar way, the knowledge of the Word gleams of good and truth which is the teachings of what is offered at Compostela.

Compostela is attended by children all around the schools of Paterson. They enjoy a snack and play in the beautiful courtyard on the side of the Cathedral or our gymnasium. They also receive daily Catechetical lessons through activities or music classes and get help with homework from our qualified staff and volunteers.
