Adult Faith Formation Classes

 

 

Our parish offers the following formation classes to meet the needs of those at various stages in the walk of faith.

             
 

Struck by Lightning LIMITED SPOTS AVAILABLE

On May 5th, 1995 something extraordinary happened to Dr. Gloria Polo Ortiz, a dentist from Bogota Colombia. She was taking shelter from a storm with her nephew, when both of them were struck by lightning. What happened to her afterwards was a miracle which led to her conversion and a life of abandonment to the will of God. Her testimony is an inspiration for all of us, and will increase our faith in Christ Jesus and His Holy Catholic Church. Come deepen your relationship with Jesus through the Testimony of Gloria Polo. Meetings will take place 3 Wednesday's in March in the Parish Hall from 7-8:30 pm.

Walking with Purpose:

Are you wanting a greater connection in your faith life? Do you leave Sunday Mass wondering how it relates to your day-to-day life? If you are nodding your head, we have something just for you. We invite you to join Walking with Purpose, a Bible study program that has transformed the hearts of countless women by deepening their perosonal relationship with Jesus through Scripture while connecting them to community. This fall we are excited to offer Opening Your Heart, our foundational study that meets women exactly where they are. Weekly sessions start on Tuesday, September 13, from 7-8:30 pm in the Holy Family Room. We will dig into topics like prayer, the role of the Holy Spirit, and what exactly is the point of suffering. There are two classes to choose from on Tuesdays. One in the morning from 9:30-11:00 am and one in the evening from 7:00-8:30 pm. For more information contact Leslie Brown at 361-756-3572. Cost is $50 which includes the study guide book.

Healing of Families Seminar and Prayer Service 

Many families, if not all, have problems that don't seem to go away no matter how much we pray. Family problems remain present and come from addictions, anxiety, depression, divorce, unhealthy relationships, unforgiveness, diseases, behavior tendencies, etc. We begin to wonder where is God in all of this? The Healing of Families Ministry team will explain why these problem exist, how these problems are surfaced, and how to rid our families of them.
