Mrs. Sharon Armstrong

Director of Religious Education

Sharon has been a full-time member of the St. Christopher Staff since 2016 and became Director of Religious Education in 2017. She has been involved in many parish ministries over the past twenty-five years, including: teaching PSR and Confirmation, Children’s Liturgy of the Word, RCIC, Girl Scouts, Boy Scouts, Vacation Bible School, and Eucharistic Minister. Sharon completed her classes in Theology and Ministry at Notre Dame College and St. Mary’s Seminary to become a Lay Ecclesial Minister in the Diocese of Cleveland in February 2018.

Sharon, along with her husband, Tom, and five children, has been a parishioner at St. Christopher since 1996. When she’s not busy with her duties in the Religious Education Office, she enjoys hiking our beautiful Metroparks and spending time with her family.

She is excited to collaborate with the people of our Parish to educate our youth in the Catholic faith. She is happy to be a part of such a wonderful staff here at St. Chris. The best part of her job is watching the students live out their faith in the generous way they use their time, talent, and kindness to serve others. A quote she found from St. Francis Assisi helps to keep her focus on the task at hand: “Start by doing what is necessary; then do what’s possible; and suddenly you are doing the impossible.”
