"Into the Fields" is a wonderful opportunity to embark on a journey of Spiritual Growth, increase your  knowledge of the Catholic faith, and learn strategies and skills to assist you in sharing your faith in ministry, with your family, and in your life beyond the church walls.  This program is ideal for those involved in Religious Education, Youth Ministry, Ministry leadership, and all others who are interested.  We will meet for 10 three-hour sessions on the first Mondays of each month.

Intergenerational Faith Formation

Intergeneration Faith Formation (IGN) is an opportunity for families to gather as community to grow in faith and knowledge.  Classes meet the 1st and 3rd Wednesdays of each month.  The evening begins at 6:00 PM in the parish center for a simple meal, then moves to an opening prayer at 6:30 PM, an opening talk or activity, then break-out sessions in smaller, age-appropriate faith sharing and learning activities.  A closing activity and prayer ends the evening at 8:00 PM. 

IGN is for all ages, from babies to grandparents.  Children must be accompanied by a parent at each session.
