Continuing Your Spiritual Journey

The Adult Spiritual Formation Commission creates opportunities for spiritual discussion, exploration, and education throughout the year. Its mission is to stimulate, support, and enable the spiritual growth of parishioners, and to deepen our faith community’s awareness of God’s presence and our commitment to follow the path of Christ.

Small Groups

Returning Fall 2024

Small groups of 8 to 10 people meet in people’s homes twice a month to strengthen our parish community and to build trusting relationships with God and each other. Each session begins with a simple dinner, and then moves into prayer, check-in, discussion, a group activity, check-out, and worship. Learn more: Small Groups
