Continuing Education: Adult Formation
As Catholics, formation in the faith is not just for the ‘pre-confirmation’ crowd of children, those being formed at home, in Catholic schools, in faith/youth formation, and adults in RCIA. Our faith is a continual process of building understanding and deepening those beliefs. Monsignor Clay points out, “Formation in faith occurs on many levels. First, we are formed in our faith through our liturgical worship. The worship experience provides us with a direct encounter with God, Jesus Christ, and the Holy Spirit. Second, we are formed in our faith through instruction, from toddlers to senior citizens. While we understandably tend to focus on the faith formation of our children and youth, 2300 adults participated in some type of formation last year at St. Francis, a sign of a healthy parish. Third, our formation comes through our service. It’s where we put our beliefs into practice and continue to grow in understanding of what it means to be a follower of Jesus Christ.”
