Faith Formation

- Faith Formation

evangelization and catechesis

Welcome

St. Jerome Catholic Church joyfully welcomes the faithful to participate in faith formation activities. From ages 0-100+ we have wonderful oportunities for anyone who would like to grow in their faith. We hope you take advantage of these many opportunities to EXPERIENCE CHRIST, who loves you and calls you His own!

Evangelization and Catechesis supports the faith formation of adults, adolescents, and children to effectively embrace the Church’s mission both to be evangelized and to evangelize, according to the spirituality of the New Evangelization, which proposes the Gospel message anew in its “ardor, methods, and expression.”

Faith and Family Life

Families who have children who are school age are invited to participate in a family centric catechesis program that combines at church sessions with at home family meetings. The first step to getting involved in this programming is to schedule a visit with a family minister so we can meet your family and talk about how best to serve you.

Youth Group Ministry

Our Youth Group Ministry is for ages 13-17. We meet every Sunday from 6:10p to 8:30p and every Wednesday from 7:00p to 8:30p. Except during Holy Week.

Small Faith Sharing Groups

Community is essential to following Jesus. These groups are three or more people who meet regularly to balance Christ's purpose for them. They provide an ongoing place for people to find community, share life, and grow in faith. It is always the right time to jump into one of these groups. Invite a friend.

Adult Scripture Study

The purpose of Bible Study Groups is based on the belief that to know our faith we must turn to sacred scripture. We must also be inspired to see the revelation of God through sacred scripture. These groups also build community and help the community plant the seed of the Kingdom so that it can grow. No training is required; just a willingness to learn about the Word of God.

Adult O.C.I.A.

Order of Christian Initiation of Adults (OCIA) is a process where non-catholic adults learn about the teachings of the Catholic Church. Practicing Catholics become companions to non-catholics as they journey toward the Easter sacraments.
