Faith Formation 

Faith Formation Classes are held from 9:15 AM to 10:15 AM on Sunday mornings, during our formation calendar year.
 

Families are warmly welcomed to join A Family of Faith. Our Family Program is an innovative approach for the whole family to learn more about the Catholic faith. A Family of Faith will help you to live and teach your children the Catholic Faith at home.  

All of St. Francis' Children Faith Formation will participate in "Family of Faith Catechesis".  As families are the basic building blocks of society, St. Francis wants to support their formation since this is where we first learn about God and learn to integrate our Catholic identity into our lives.  Since parents are the constant in the lives of their children, it is sensible to include parents in the faith formation of their children empowering them to be spiritual leaders in their Domestic Church.  These Family of Faith Classes are for our Formation Parents.  They will meet once a month for class on the first Sundays of each Month, starting in October Class runs form 9:15 AM to 10:15 AM.
