What is Faith Formation?
What is Faith Formation?
Faith formation seeks to develop the whole person to see things through the eyes of faith, which leads people to a mature adult faith. Catechesis is a lifelong process to develop the spiritual, intellectual and emotional capacity of a person to equip them for the mission that Jesus Christ has begun, to spread the Good News of Salvation to all.

“At some point, we feel Jesus is looking at us. He always makes us feel as though he knows we are here, and he promises a deeper encounter in which we will be the main character in our friendship with him.” (Pope Francis)
