Adult Faith Formation

Grow in Faith with Adult Faith Formation

It's not just about "classes."

We provide a wide variety of opportunities for adults to nourish and grow in their Catholic Faith such as Bible Studies, guest speaker luncheons, small group

faith sharing, pilgrimages, book discussions, faith-based movies and more.

All are welcome.
