Family Faith Formation

Family Faith Formation Program

The mission of Family Faith Formation is to provide support to children and families that have a desire to grow in faith.

The hope of Family Faith Formation is to spark the beginning of a lifelong ongoing faith formation in the families that come to the Cathedral of the Annunciation.  Most of all, it is our prayer that families grow in their relationship with God.

Family Faith Formation sessions are held on Sunday Mornings.  

These sessions are for families who would like to prepare their children for Sacraments and for families or adults who would like to learn more about their faith. The sessions follow the seasons of the Church calendar, i.e. Advent, Lent, etc.

Come and join this exciting new faith formation! Your family can grow in faith together!
