Generations of Faith is our parish's faith formation process for all ages. We gather once a month, on a Sunday or Wednesday evening. We begin with a light meal, followed by an opening session. After the opening, we break up into the following age groups: preschool (4-5 yr olds), 1st-4th grade (one parent or guardian stays with these child), 5-6th grade, 7-8th grade, 9-12th grade, and adults. Any adult who does not have a child in 1st-4th grade will join our adult session for an interesting discussion. Children need to have a parent or guardian attend with them. We encourage all ages, those with or without children, parents & grandparents, single persons & families to participate!
