Our “Weekly Themes” are both Event Centered and Lectionary Based. The Whole Community is invited to participate in any or all sessions. Families with Children are expected to participate weekly as there schedules allow. For planning purposes, Registration Forms are needed by September 26.
Our approach is the development of the parish as a lifelong learning community, a congregation of learners. In a learning community, learners are teaching, teachers are learning, and all activities-meetings, worship. Service, and community events-include learning. In this way the parish community can be revitalized and transformed.
Our goal is to immerse people into the life of the faith community, providing opportunities to learn by participating and experiencing. “The process of coming to faith and growing in the life of faith is fundamentally a process of participation. We come to recognize and live in the Spirit as we participate more and more broadly and deeply in communities that know God’s love, acknowledge it, express it, and live their lives in the light of it.” (Growing in the Life of Faith: Education and Christian Practices, 40)
