Catholic Adult Faith Formation
St. Jude is a vibrant community of Catholic Christians seeking to deepen their faith, grow spiritually, and connect with fellow believers. At our parish, we offer a range of opportunities for adult faith formation, designed to meet you where you are on your faith journey. Whether you’re a lifelong Catholic or exploring Christianity for the first time, there’s a place for you here.
Our Offerings
1. OCIA (Order of Christian Initiation of Adults)
The OCIA process is a beautiful journey of discovery and conversion. If you’re new to the Catholic faith or seeking to complete your sacraments, OCIA is for you. Our team of catechists and sponsors will walk alongside you as you explore the teachings of the Church, encounter Christ, and prepare for the sacraments of Baptism, Confirmation, and Eucharist.
2. Adult Confirmation Classes
Have you been baptized but haven’t received the sacrament of Confirmation? Our Adult Confirmation classes provide an opportunity to delve deeper into the gifts of the Holy Spirit and strengthen your commitment to living out your faith. Whether you missed Confirmation as a teenager or simply want to renew your faith, these classes are a chance to grow in grace and knowledge.
3. Retreats
Spiritual retreats offer a sacred pause—a time to step away from the busyness of life and draw closer to God. Throughout the year, we organize retreats that allow you to reflect, pray, and recharge. From silent retreats to themed weekends, our retreats provide a space for encountering God’s presence and finding renewal.
4. Bible Studies
Dive into Scripture with our engaging Bible studies. Led by knowledgeable facilitators, these sessions explore the Word of God, its relevance to our lives, and its impact on our faith. Whether you’re a seasoned Bible reader or a beginner, you’ll find fellowship, discussion, and spiritual growth in our study groups.
Join Us!
We invite you to participate in any of our programs. No matter where you are in your faith journey, there’s always room to learn, ask questions, and deepen your relationship with God. Come and be part of our community as we seek to live out the Gospel together.
