Ongoing Formation Events
Scripture Study: Explore the upcoming Sunday readings each Wednesday at noon while enjoying your own bag lunch with fellow parishioners in room 145.
Children’s Liturgy of Word is offered every Sunday during the 5:00 Mass at our St. Peter’s Church site so our youngest parishioners can more fully understand the readings at Mass. Participants will be called forth before the first reading and gather in the library to listen to the word at their level returning to the Mass during the offertory.
Confirmation preparation is offered on various Sunday evenings from 6:00-7:30pm for those young people in 11th or 12th grade who are preparing to receive this sacrament

September 27 at 11:45 Raising Faith Filled Kids: A Conversation in Room 141
You’re doing one of the hardest and most important jobs there is — raising your children in the faith, in a world that doesn’t always make that easy. We want to help, but we can’t do that well unless we hear from you first.
Join us for a short, informal listening session where parents like you will share what’s working, what’s hard, and what you wish our parish offered as you form your kids in faith at home and at church. This isn’t a lecture — it’s your chance to shape the future of our religious education and family ministry programs.
Beverages, snacks, and childcare will be provided.
Sessions are offered on multiple dates and times so you can find one that fits your family’s schedule. Every family with a child in faith formation is asked to attend one session this year — because your perspective is what will make our programs actually work for real families like yours.
