"Faithful" Essentials for Catholic Adults
Online | Thursdays 7-8:30pm
We will be using the "United States Catholic Catechism for Adults" as our text; the catechism is available for free online (also in Spanish) or can be purchased in hard copy or e-book format from your favorite bookstore.
Join us online beginning in Fall 2020 for our new adult formation program, "Faithful." This program is built around the same essential questions taught in our religious education curriculum, so that families can journey together through their faith formation year. "Faithful" is a great review of (or introduction to) essential Catholic teachings, and a wonderful way to rediscover the beauty of our faith.
