Faith Formation
Faith Formation is an ongoing responsibility in our Catholic Faith. As adults, we are to commit to a lifelong journey of understanding our faith, proclaiming our faith, and living out our faith. Adult faith formation has become an important part of our parish life.
Our "team" strives to offer a variety of means to help our parishioners through their journey through workshops, retreats, parish missions, dynamic speakers, seminars, programs, small groups, etc.
Any adult parishioners interested in growing in their faith are welcome to join our team and most importantly to attend the events.

This family friendly exhibit is great for all ages to learn about the historic sanctuary built by the Hebrews to worship God.

Each element inside this sanctuary had deep significance to the Hebrew people and this tour brings each symbol to life.

Bible Study -
Ephesians: Discover Your Inheritance
One of the most remarkable things about our Faith is that by God’s grace, we have become his adopted sons and daughters. In your day-to-day life, what does it mean to be a son or daughter of God—an heir to his promises and blessings? When you sit in the pews each Sunday, what does it mean to you to be part of his family, the Church? To help you uncover this meaning, St Patrick will begin an eight-week Bible study Ephesians: Discover Your Inheritance for its Bible Study this Fall.
Participants will meet every week to view an engaging video presentation followed by a time of lively group discussion and fellowship. For more information or to register, visit
