Parish's Adult Faith Formation...

Adult Faith Formation sessions are held throughout the year. A session consists of about four weekly meetings of Scripture, conversation and fellowship. The program focuses on how the word of God impacts one's daily life.

“I would so recommend Adult Faith Formation to others … It is a great way to break away from the routine of life and build your relationship with God and others.”

“Getting together in a small group really helps me realize how the Scriptures apply to everyday life just as much as they applied to those during the times they were written.”

The facilitators create a relaxing, informal atmosphere where people can feel free to share ideas about faith and life. There is no pressure. Programs are often held in homes of participants. Of course space is available at the parish for sessions.

“I used to feel very inadequate in my knowledge of Catholic teachings and my ability to understand Scripture, but I have found that I am not alone and that there are many others who have just as many questions as I do and we help each other find the answers. I have also made some very good friends at these sessions because there is so much personal sharing (always by choice, never obligated). I don’t know what I would do without my St. Joseph Parish family!”

Sessions are planned throughout the year. But, anyone can start a formation group at anytime and St. Joseph's will provide resources, materials and expertise.

“The sessions are very comfortable, relaxed and warm with some laughing too."

The parish's Ministry Center is available during the morning, afternoon and evening hours for those who want to start their own group.

“I decided to go to the first session and I was hooked ever since.”
