Faith Formation Ministry
At Immaculate Conception,
we believe that religious education is a lifelong process and
that parents are the primary spiritual and moral educators of
their children. As the Catechism of the Catholic Church
says so beautifully, "Education
in the faith by the parents should begin in the child's earliest
years. This already happens when family members help one another
grow in faith by the witness of a Christian life in keeping with
the Gospel. Family catechesis precedes, accompanies, and enriches
other forms of instruction in the faith. Parents have the mission
of teaching their children to pray and to discover their vocation
as children of God. The parish is the Eucharistic community and
the heart of the liturgical life of Christian families; it is
a privileged place for the catechesis of children and parents"
(Catechism, 2226).
Our responsibility as a parish church is to support parents in
their role as the primary teachers and evangelists of their families.
Through our full range of Faith Formation ministries, we seek
to give the children and adults in our care the knowledge,
experience, and skills necessary to become faithful and fruitful
disciples of Jesus.
