The Faith Formation Office is committed to serve the community on their continuous journey for spiritual growth. We provide guidance, resources, and support directed to help everyone strengthen their relationship with God and His Church as they grow in love, in faith, and in understanding of our Catholic teachings and beliefs.
Our Mission: To bridge the gap between the Domestic Church and parish community by inviting all families on their journey to discipleship.
Our Vision: To be the best source of encouragement and support so all families would be inspired to be fully active in lifelong faith formation.
“Parents have the first responsibility for the education of their children. They bear witness to this responsibility first by creating a home where tenderness, forgiveness, respect, fidelity, and disinterested service are the rule. The home is well suited for education in the virtues. This requires an apprenticeship in self-denial, sound judgment, and self-mastery-the preconditions of all true freedom. Parents should teach their children to subordinate the ‘material and instinctual dimensions to interior and spiritual ones.’ Parents have a grave responsibility to give good example to their children. By knowing how to acknowledge their own failings to their children, parents will be better able to guide and correct them.” (CCC 2223)
