Whole Parish Catechesis

Beginning August 9th at 8:45 a.m., Father Nelson will begin catechetical instruction for candidates for baptism, confirmation, and those who would like to deepen their understanding of the Faith.
Catechesis is a greek word meaning "instruction." It is best described as conversion therapy, a process necessary for all who would grow into mature Faith in Jesus Christ. During this process, you will not only learn, but will become a changed person. Your life will become markedly different.
Catechesis is for you if:
- You're interested in becoming a Christian.
- You're interested in receiving the Sacrament of Baptism.
- You're interested in joining our parish.
- You're interested in receiving the Sacrament of Confirmation.
- You're interested in learning to teach your children.
The only text for the course is the Bible. We recommend bringing a version with good notes and the Apocrypha. The Revised Standard Version is the best available. If you do not have a bible, we can provide one for you.
