A new process centered around community faith development. We gather, share stories, and break bread. It's all about the family, immediate family and larger parish family.
Come and see how this process helps you and your family and friends to pass on and share faith with each other in a very exciting and fun way. The process is very old as it recalls the Early Church process of Faith Sharing. Where the community would gather and remember Jesus through story and reflect on those experiences.
Help us plan by registering on-line or pickup a registration form in the Church Narthex.
Meets once per month beginning in August (and skipping December) with two session times to choose from:
- One session on Saturday following the 5:00pm Mass OR
- One session on Sunday following the 5:30pm Mass

Solidarity
