Together in Faith

What is "Together in Faith"?

Together in Faith is a Catholic approach to parish-wide faith formation. It offers singles, couples, and families the opportunity to faith together. Parishoners gather monthly within an intergenerational grouping for one 3-hour session. These sessions provide an opportunity for reflection about the year's faith themes and prepare participants to understand more fully the values, teachings and events of Catholic worship and life.

What are the goals of "Together in Faith"?

Together in Faith seeks to...

  • Transform catechesis as a separate "program" by implementing a more collaborative and integrative approach that involves ALL of the parish's ministries within faith formation.
  • End age separation in catechesis.
  • Shift the focus of the curriculum from the textbook to the events of Church life.
  • Nurture "family" faith at home as integral to the faith formation process.
  • Enable parents to approach the task of being the primary catechists for their children with confidence and knowledge.
