Adult Catechesis
Adult Faith Formation
Men’s Fellowship is a ministry that is calling to all men in the parish. We meet on the first Saturday of every month at 7:30 AM in the Activity Room of the Parish Hall. We welcome everyone who wants to meditate and discuss scriptures with the fellowship of other parishioners. All you have to do to join in this ministry is show up. We look forward to seeing you.
The GIFT Team was developed to offer continued adult faith formation for practicing
Catholics, as well as those who are new or renewed in the faith. G.I.F.T. is an acronym
for Growing In Faith Together. The sharing and spiritual bonding that occurs at each
event leads to a comradery of faith and community.
Activities in the past have included:
*classes on Catholic teachings, practices, and devotions
*days of reflection
* book studies
* parish wide concerts & movie events
* special social and service projects
* team building weekend beach retreats
* Lenten missions, such the one with
Father Larry Richards
* And Bible studies
These occur at various times throughout the
year. Check the bulletin and parish website:
