RISE | COMMUNITY FAITH FORMATION
Throughout our lives as Christians, we remain disciples, that is, students of Jesus Christ, followers of the Master Teacher. Consequently, our parishes offer faith formation for members of the entire community from four to ninety-nine. We call it RISE Community.
WHAT IS IT?
RISE invites parishioners of all ages to grow in their knowledge and love of Christ through fellowship and learning. We'll gather for a simple meal, followed by a presentation and discussion (adults), and classes (youth).
WHO IS IT FOR?
Parishioners and guests of all ages: adults, young adults, and youth. It is required for families with students in First Communion and Confirmation, and highly encouraged for those individuals and families in our OCIA, OCIC, Baptism Preparation, and Adult Confirmation Programs.
WHEN IS IT?
Each month there will be two opportunities to participate, always over the same weekend: Saturday Evening at St. Lucy's following the 4:00pm Mass (5-7pm). Sunday Mornings at St. Monica's following the 9:00am Mass (10:00am-12:00pm).
