Faith Formation Mission Statement

We draw strength and tradition from those who have gone before us and the energy and faithfulness of our youth. We strive to share our faith in Jesus and teach by example; care for the many gifts we have been given and use them wisely; believe that each and every person is made in the image and likeness of God and as such possess dignity and potential that is to be respected.
