Confirmation & Eucharist- adults who are baptized Catholic and have not been Confirmed or received their First Communion are able to do so now through the sacrament preparation process of Confirmation for Adults.

Lectionary-Based Bible Study
Join us on Saturday mornings from 7-8 in the Parish Life Center (PLC) with the 8:30 am Mass following in the Church. Since it is a lectionary-based bible study, it focuses on the Sunday readings. It is led by Deacon Nick Thompson and it is free.

Adult Faith Formation
We offer formation series in the spring, summer, and fall. 

• Fall/Spring is usually hosted from October through April in the Parish Life Center from 3:30 pm to 4:45 pm with Mass following. The series explores a variety of topics through a diversity of speakers. The sessions are engaging, help strengthen community bonds, and allow for self-reflection. Please use the registration form below to register for free! Here is the schedule and topics:

• Summer is usually hosted in June and July. Information about our 2024 summer series will be available in early-2024.
