Welcome to St Rose of Lima Faith Formation! We invite you to join our Catholic Christian Community as together we grow in faith through the Word of God, are nourished by the Eucharist, and strengthened by the ministry of the Church.

We are each challenged to discern the path God has chosen for us as we learn to live as His disciples. Each of us experiences our call to know, love, and serve our Lord in ways He reveals to our hearts. Each person’s unique journey is a source of renewal for the entire Body of Christ. Yet none of us travels the road alone. Here at St Rose of Lima we live, serve, grow, and worship together as a faith community, members of the Body of Christ, and His One True Church.

We pray that you will allow us the blessing of supporting you and your family on your path towards Christ.

Mission Statement
“To be a warm welcoming Catholic Christian Community that shares the responsibility of catechesis by the way we live, act, think, and teach our faith”


Philosophy
Parents not only share the gift of human life with their children, through Baptism they enrich them with a share in God’s own life. Parents are the most effective catechists for their children and their role is irreplaceable. Catechesis that involves the whole family enriches and encourages the faith of the parents and provides a foundation of joyful participation for children.
Structured catechesis at any age provides us the opportunity to grow, learn, pray, and worship with fellow Christians our own age. This Catechesis is a life-long journey. It begins with our Baptism and continues our entire life. It is a constant nourishing and deepening of faith through the ministry of the Church.

Objectives

• Weekly participation at Mass and reception of the Sacraments

• Catechesis that is faithful to Sacred Scripture and Tradition and the teaching authority of the Magisterium

• Stewardship that is rooted in a personal relationship with Christ and fosters a sharing of gifts and blessings with others

• Evangelization that shares the salvation found through Jesus Christ and His One True Church with each person we encounter through word and deed
