Adult Faith Formation

“If you live according to my teaching, you are truly my disciples; then you will know the truth and the truth will set you free.”

John 8:32

The Adult Faith Formation Ministry offers a variety of programs for the formation and growth of the Catholic faith in adults. These programs are listed below:

٠  Adult Catechesis

٠  Bible Study

٠  Couple-to-Couple Marriage Ministry

٠  Landings

٠  Pilmigrage

٠  Prayer Series

٠  Rite of Christian Initiation for Adults (R.C.I.A.)

٠  Small Faith Communities

The Church of St. Gregory the Great has many adult study opportunities throughout the year. These programs are designed to meet the many needs and interests of all people in our parish community. For more information contact the Religious Education Office at 499-4494.

Following is a list of the ongoing programs which meet weekly:

• Wednesdays: Scripture Study

In addition to these weekly programs, there will be PARENT SESSIONS held on Tuesday evenings, 6:30 pm until 7:30 pm starting September 28. These sessions will cover a wide variety of topics.

• Confirmation for Adults: Many Catholic adults find for various reasons that they did not receive their Confirmation and sometimes even Eucharist in their formative years. These classes are also great refresher courses for confirmed Catholics who wish to update their knowledge of church. St. Gregory recognizes this and offers classes on Sunday mornings at 9:00 a.m.

• Catechist Formation Classes are held periodically throughout the year for all catechists and all parishioners. Watch the bulletin and flyers for more information.

• The Parish Mission will take place during the Lenten season. Make sure you set aside this week for a prayerful and spiritual experience. Watch the bulletin and flyers for more information.

• The Landings Program welcomes inactive Catholics back to the practice of the sacraments and greater involvement in the life of the parish.

• Small Faith Sharing Communities are in practice. Groups of 8-12 adults gather weekly to pray together, discuss faith and encourage and care for one another. Watch the church bulletin for more information.
