For the other nights, the fees will remain the same: $30 for Monday night, and $80 for Wednesday. You can find the link in the Christian Education tab on our website
www.christ-the-king.org or go directly to the registration:
There is also a document on our website titled "Online Registration Instructions" - this is a great step by step guide in case you have any problems. Do yourself a favor and check this off your to-do list before Summer is in full swing!"
