The passing on of our Catholic tradition depends on the witness of adults in continuing their own faith development. The quality of faith formation for children and youth is directly related to an adult community that is well-formed in the Catholic faith. Thus, our primary focus is on adult faith formation. Many adults long for a deeper personal experience of God and involvement in a community of faith. We provide opportunities to satisfy the spiritual hunger of adults and to talk about the importance of Jesus Christ in their lives.

Updated programming details, including a full schedule of formation sessions and events, COMING SOON!

The Rescue Project

We live our lives according to the stories we believe…but what if there is another story? That story is the Gospel: explosive, extraordinary, and life-changing news!

The Rescue Project is a nine-week, small group experience surrounded by food, conversation, and prayer. Discover a new way of seeing reality, of making sense of the world and life that is vastly different from the story our modern culture sells. Embark on the great adventure that is following Jesus and continuing His mission of the rescuing of this world.

The Rescue Project is for teens and adults. Whether you’ve been walking with Jesus for years or if you only view Jesus as a figure in ancient history – JOIN US!

So…What’s YOUR Story? Experience this life-altering program for yourself! Join us this fall as we transform our hearts and souls and discover the answers to questions we’ve been longing for.

Pick your time – all are welcome!
