Office of Faith Formation
Pope John Paul II, in his letter Novo Millennio Ineunte, challenges us to accept Christ’s invitation to “put out into the deep,” and nurture our ambitious dreams of personal holiness and apostolic fruitfulness.
The goal of the Office of Faith Formation is to assist parishioners in their efforts to respond to this challenge by initiating, developing and promoting programs that will provide spiritual growth and religious education among the people of God. This formation of faith will include helping people to reflect on their daily experiences in order to recognize God’s presence, link this experience with the Church’s tradition and teachings, experience, proclaim and witness faith through a life of service.
