Monthly Newsletters
Pope Francis reminds us that “living the Christian life…is a lifelong commitment to getting to know Jesus through prayer and studying His word.” Our goal in Adult Faith Formation is to help facilitate this lifelong journey. One way we promote this is through our monthly Adult Faith Newsletters found here. Blessings ~
