Faith Formation
Thank you for your kind reflections on "What is our vision?" for the future of Faith Formation in our cluster. If you have not already filled out a half sheet of paper, you are invited to be part of this process by prayerfully considering the following:
- What do you feel is the best word to describe our faith community right now?
- What one word would you like to describe our community in five years?
- Identify the important needs for Faith Formation to address right now.
Please email me your feedback, or fill out the feedback form at church.
The next step in our process is an opportunity to attend a Listening Session, for sharing ideas and suggestions on making adjustments to our program, so that our programs (faith formation, Sacramental prep - Baptism, Eucharist, Confirmation - RCIA, etc) can more effectively help families on their faith journey.
Listening Sessions:
Tuesday, February 27th, 2:00pm OR 6:30pm, at Parish Office, Avon
Thursday, March 1st, 5:30pm, at St. Paul of the Cross, Honeoye Falls
Sunday, March 4th, 9:30am, at Brendan Hall, Lima
As always, you are welcome to contact me by phone or email with any questions, concerns, or feedback.
