Faith Formation
Faith Formation
- Parish School of Religion (PSR)
PSR is to assist parents in catechizing and forming their children so that they may know, love, and serve God better through religious education classes, and to encourage active participation in the faith, attending Mass and receiving the sacraments.
- R.C.I.A.
R.C.I.A. is a process through which adults are initiated as members of the Roman Catholic Church. It is rooted in ancient traditions of the early Church which formed new believers in Jesus as members of the Christian community. Today, R.C.I.A. continues the Church's "family tradition" of welcoming, supporting, and nurturing new brothers and sisters in faith.
