Adult Faith Formation
“Always be ready to give an explanation to anyone who asks you for a reason for your hope.”
1 Peter 3:15
“The Church's catechetical mission aims to help the faithful of all ages to grow in both human and Christian maturity, enriching the whole of life with the leaven of the Gospel.”
Three major goals guide and direct efforts in adult faith formation:
Invite and Enable Ongoing Conversion to Jesus in Holiness of Life
Promote and Support Active Membership in the Christian Community
Call and Prepare Adults to Act as Disciples in Mission to the World
