MERIT (Marshfield’s Exceptional Religious Instruction Team), a Catholic catechetical program offered to parishes in the Marshfield Deanery.

The first MERIT class of about 10 intellectually challenged children met in the fall of 1999. The program has worked with over 20 intellectually challenged students in its 16-year history.

Today the program meets 10 times during the school year at the Columbia Room in St. John the Baptist school. To enroll a child or for questions, please contact either Krisann Williams 715-387-2119 or Vivian Gamble 715-659-5555.
