Casa Faith Formation Newsletter

September 10, 2023

​

A Note from Fred:

As a Faith Formation team, Donna, Cheryl and I have spent the last few weeks "fleshing out" what exactly it is that we do here.  As a result, we have identified that at present moment, our department consists of five unique but not mutually exclusive ministries:  Whole Community Ministry, Sacrament Preparation Ministry, Family Ministry, Youth Ministry, and Young Adult Ministry.

​

In the weeks to come, I will devote this section of the newsletter to saying more about each of these ministries.

​

"Comprehensive" is the key word here.  We in Church leadership have learned that good faith formation does not use a "one size fits all" model.  Meeting people where they are and providing opportunities for spiritual growth in a multitude of ways has proven to be the best (or if you prefer, least inadequate) way of forming a community of faith.

​

We believe that these five ministries represent a great "container" for the important and life-giving work of Casa Faith Formation!
