Dear Parishioners,
Our faith formation program of religious education, Generations of
Faith, is now entering its 6th year. Have you been a participant?
Have your children or grandchildren had the opportunity to learn
their faith by watching you learn more about your Catholic faith?
Have there been missed years of learning between their First
Communion and Reconciliation classes and their upcoming
Confirmation? Are you able to answer the questions, “Why are we
Catholic Christians?” “What makes our faith practices and beliefs
different from other Christians?
That is just what Generations of Faith sets out to
do. Generations of Faith is about putting our faith into practice.
The focus for this year will be on “Rights & Responsibilities –
Catholic Social Teaching,” how we as Catholic Christians daily
fulfill our Christian commitment to God, our families, our
community, our country and our world.
All sessions start with a meal. As at home, this
gives us an opportunity to discuss what has been happening in our
lives with others of similar beliefs. Generations is about
witnessing to one another the importance of our faith and gives us
an opportunity to share that faith with our Christian community.
Our parish has grown in community over the past
six years. We recognize people we may not have had an opportunity to
know and we, as a community of living faith, join in their hopes,
losses, and joys.
Whether you are 4 or 74, man or woman, Generations
of Faith is for you. What kind of Catholic will your
child/grandchild grow up to be based on your own personal example?
Do not just proclaim “I am a Catholic.” Come find out what those
words really mean.
Sincerely,
The Faith Formation Team of: Pauline, Jan,
Lillian, and Fr. Cliff
Registration forms are
available at the rectory or,

the continued success of our endeavor. We are confident that this
will make us a
stronger parish and a closer faith community.
