Faith Formation
Program Overview
The Catholic Church possesses a treasure of history, Tradition, Sacred Scripture, and Sacraments for helping people of all ages to grow as lifelong disciples in Christ’s One, Holy, Catholic, and Apostolic Church. We seek to inform and encourage our parishioners and all those interested in the Catholic Church.
Emphasizing the richness and beauty of the Catholic Faith, love of God, and love of neighbor, our programs focus on Scripture (the Holy Bible), Church Tradition (the dogmas, doctrines, Apostolic truths of the faith, Catechism, and church teachings), the Seven Sacraments, Catholic traditions (holy and enriching customs and practices, theology, and history), fellowship, and community-building activities.

Call to Discipleship: Are you Called to be a Catechist?
The ministry of catechesis is greatly important. The work of a Catechist or Assistant Catechist is a beautiful ministry in which one is called by Christ. The call to be a Catechist is a call to discipleship: to build relationships with children and families and share our Catholic faith. Contact the Director of Faith Formation to learn how you can be involved.
