- Vision Statement -
We are a ministry that seeks to challenge, prepare and
motivate adults of faith, to give expression to the relationship
to Jesus Christ in action for the mission of evangelization.
At St. Joseph Church, our Adult Faith Formation Ministry is concerned with the ongoing learning of our adult faith community. We offer friendly and enlightening programs to those who seek to deepen their knowledge of the Catholic
We currently offer the following ways in which to learn about our faith.Pope John Paul II said… Adults are called to a full and personal living out of the liturgy in the secular world. We cannot give to the world what we do not have in our hearts; we cannot bear witness to what we do not understand, or even know. We cannot raise our children in a faith we do not understand and love. We need to know the faith, growing in that wisdom for the rest of our lives. |
From the GDC (General Directory of Catechesis)... continuing formation in faith is directed not only to the individual Christian... but also to the Christian community as such so that it may mature also in its interior life of love of God and of the brethren as well as in its openness to the world as a missionary community.
