Growing in Faith Together - GIFT

- Growing in Faith Together is a faith formation opportunity with focus on the family. In past years, families gather to enjoy a meal, learn about our faith and particiapte in age-appropriate groups. Due to the current pandemic, we've decided not to physically gather this fall (2020). We will re-evaluate in December regarding our spring schedule.
  Our goal is to provide parents the opportunity to grow in their faith and equip them to share the Catholic Faith with their children.
What can you expect from GIFT
- Our 2020-2021 theme: Christian Prayer
  
  GIFT allows the whole family to grow in faith together. Recognizing the craziness of the current year, we are keeping it simple. Beginning in October, we will have two short (30-40 minutes) Zoom sessions each month; one adult meeting and one family meeting.   This is an opportunity for you to gather(virtually) with like-minded parents and ask questions of our catechist. Parents are provided with resources and the choice of easy, simple activities to do at home that connect the truths of our faith with daily life. Our catechists will encourage and guide you through the process. The focus of '20-'21 is Christian prayer. Some of the topics for this year include:
  
  What is prayer?
  
  The 7 Petitions of the Our Father
  
  The Holy Spirit and Prayer
  
  Praying with Scripture
  
  We look forward to getting to know you and your children!
