Education and Formation

Mission and Purpose

 

 

The education and formation efforts in the parish are intended to enhance the faith life of the Catholic Christian.  Education and formation ministry takes on many forms in the parish, such as the school, the religious education program, adult formation, and opportunities for faith sharing, to name a few.  Whatever form education and formation takes, it is always guided by the needs of the people.  In working to meet these spiritual and pastoral needs through formational and educational programs, the Commission is helping people grow in their faith and to deepen their relationship with God.  In developing and implementing programs the Commission consults and collaborates with the Pastor, the Parish Staff, the staff members of the School, the Religious Education Program, the Youth Ministry Program, and Advisory Boards, as well as the other Commissions.
