Faith Formation
Faith formation is the very mission of God’s church, to equip followers of Jesus Christ so that they may be sent out into the world to spread God’s kingdom. Faith formation is the process by which our faith grows and our lives are shaped by God’s love.
What is Faith Formation?
Faith formation of all children begins in the family. Starting with the sacrament of Baptism, children are initiated into the church with their parents and godparents supporting them as they begin their faith journey. Parents are the primary teachers (catechists) of the Catholic Christian faith for their children. As the primary catechists, parents should be active participants in weekly Masses and live their faith vibrantly at home. Pray before meals, celebrate the liturgical year, talk about God, and your experiences with Jesus. Take time to pray the rosary and read the bible.
