Catholic faith formation is a lifelong journey, an ongoing maturation of faith as we continually respond to God’s love while growing deeper in our understanding and increasing in faith and love for the Lord. It is with great joy that the Church of the Immaculate Conception catechists, along with parents, prepare the children to receive the sacraments and accompany them in walking closely with God.
As part of their faith formation, children are taught the teachings of the Roman Catholic Church and the importance of living their faith, from now and into their adulthood. Since our faith is meant to be lived and shared in our daily lives, faith formation, too, should not be limited only to our weekly sessions but should continue at home through daily prayer, conversation, the reading of Scripture, and, most importantly, through encounter with Christ in the Eucharist at Mass. By your example and through your practicing of the faith, you give witness to Christ and serve as a missionary disciple, evangelizing to your children and all children in our parish.
