Adult Faith Formation

Join us for Adult Faith Formation

We are happy to announce that our Adult Faith Formation program this fall will be focused on the wonderful, best-selling book The Holy Longing by Fr. Ron Rolheiser, OMI. In posing the question "What is spirituality?" Fr. Ron makes sense of what is frequently a misunderstood word: spirituality. His book is for those searching to understand what Christian spirituality means and how to apply it to their own lives. At the core of this very readable, deeply revealing book is an explanation of God and the Church in a world that more often than not doubts the credibility of both. 

Used copies of The Holy Longing can also be found at a discounted price at Abebooks.com 

The classes will meet weekly beginning:

Sunday, September 22 from 10am - 11 am or

Tuesday, September 24 from 4:30 pm to 5:30 pm

The classes will meet in the Emmaus room on the 1st floor of the San Damiano Building.
