Join
us for Generations of Faith
 |
WHO?
Generations of Faith is for everyone – singles, families
with young children, teens, adults, seniors,
school families – everyone!
|
|
WHAT?
Generations of Faith is an innovative approach to faith
formation that equips the parish to become a community of learning by
creating lifelong faith formation that is centered in the events of
church life, embraces all ages and generations, and promotes faith
growth at home, through parish preparation programs, and, most
importantly, through participation in church life.
|
|
WHERE?
We meet at St. Robert’s Activity Center and use various
venues throughout the parish facilities
|
|
WHEN?
Generations of Faith Preparation Programs are offered 8 times
a year on Friday evenings from 6:00 PM to 9:00 PM.
|
|
HOW?
Our preparation sessions begin with a simple meal, then a large group
presentation of the focus for the session. Sometimes we break into age-
appropriate groups for instructions and sometimes we travel through the
session all together. We close with a prayer service and the distribution
of Home Kits which are designed to help continue the catechesis at home.
