Adult Faith Formation is a response to God’s call to holiness. Our faith and life as adult disciples are grounded in developing a personal relationship with Jesus, “the Holy One of God”. Faith Formation helps adults “to acquire an attitude of conversion to the Lord." It leads them to recognize and repent of sin in their hearts and lives, to see reconciliation through the sacraments, and to embrace the invitation and challenge of an ever deepening faith in Jesus. Adult Faith Formation also promotes and supports active membership in the life of St. Patrick Parish. Additionally it calls and prepares us to act as disciples in mission to the world.

Wisdom: God's Vision for Life
An Eight-Part Bible Study Featuring Jeff Cavins

Scripture and the tradition of the Catholic Church provide an abundance of wisdom, though it can often be challenging to apply it to our lives. In this study, Jeff Cavins and Thomas Smith examine biblical wisdom as it relates to daily life. Drawing on the wisdom literature of the Bible - Proverbs, Wisdom, Sirach and Ecclesiastes - Wisdom will teach you how to actively seek out sound guidance and increase your sense of peace in navigating life, in everything from friendships to finances, from making decisions to attaining peace of mind. Scripture offers a vision for happiness and well-being. With this program, you will learn how to gather, gain and grow in wisdom, and you will experience the joy it brings to your life.

“Wisdom is seeing with God’s eyes.” ~Pope Francis
