Adult Faith Formation
-
What is Faith Formation?
-
Faith Formation helps us grow in our relationship with God and to live as disciples of Jesus as we better understand the faith, the Bible and spiritual life.
Being in communion… with Jesus Christ
* Entry into a “community of believers… a sign of newness of life, the visible sacrament of salvation”
* To be “more willing and able to be a Christian disciple in the world.”
—excerpted from Our Hearts Were Burning within Us: A Pastoral Plan for Adult Faith Formation in the United States
“When you light a flame from a flame, it is the same flame that you receive.” -Saint Symeon (949-1022)
