Faith Formation at St. Thomas the Apostle Church
Learning about and nurturing our Catholic faith
We strongly believe forming faith and nurturing spiritual growth are lifelong processes.
Our hope is to provide meaningful programs that are rich in quality, substance and are filled with God’s grace.
Our educational programs explore our rich Catholic traditions and help people of all ages strengthen and deepen their faith.
Our program follows the Pflaum Gospel Weeklies
Effective – Affordable – Complete – Timesaving – Fosters Weekly Mass Attendance
The program offers the finest in up-to-the-minute catechetical reflections, exercises, and activities based on the words of Jesus Christ and on his Gospels as celebrated weekly at Sunday Mass. At the same time, the program is filled with the basic teachings of the Catholic faith.
In addition to the rich catechetical experiences found in the weekly lessons, each child receives
“What the Church Believes and Teaches” – a handbook, or catechism, that helps teachers and parents review and reinforce the basic teaching that need to be mastered at each level.
