Community Faith Formation Ministries:

Adult Formation:

Alpha Ministry: Alpha is a gathering of adults who are investigating Christianity
with love and laughter, exploring such questions as: What is the meaning of life?
What happens when we die? How do I pray? The Alpha series meets once
week for ten weeks, has a one day retreat and ends with a celebration dinner.

RCIA: RCIA (Christian Initiation) is not a program but a sacramental formation process by which men, women and children become members of the Catholic Church. The RCIA takes place with in the context of the parish community and, after a suitable period of formation, culminates in the reception of the Sacraments of Initiation.
RCIA - Who is it for?
Each different situation is addressed individually. Typically, we serve those:
• Who are not baptized
• Baptized in another Christian denomination
• Baptized Catholic but not raised in the Catholic tradition
• Baptized Catholics who have been alienated from the community and seek to return
RCIA - Companion Sponsor Ministry
The Companion Sponsor is someone who walks with the Candidate on their journey of faith, providing a living example of conversion that links the Candidate to the larger parish family.
