Prayer, Scripture, Study, Faith-sharing, Action

Our faith sharing communities­ are powered by the Holy Spirit and bring our parish together to live out the gospel message and celebrate­ our faith in our daily lives.

The parish is meant to foster two basic realities: an experience of love and an experience of faith. The primary basic is love. Whatever else a Catholic knows, he or she must absolutely know that he or she is loved by the people of the Church.

The second basic is faith. God becomes more real for us when we share our faith - or lack of it - with one another because sharing helps us notice God and take God seriously. God has to be found in everyday life.

Faith and love are experiences. The more these experiences are shared, the more people notice God and God’s call to be Church for one another. This usually can only happen in a small group or community. Our community sharing leads us to action.

Volunteer & Participant Opportunities

Service in this ministry can happen in a variety of ways - as active members of a small church community, as leaders, hosts and as members of a core community. The benefits are shared love and faith - for the individual, for the group and for the larger community.
