St. Andrew the Apostle offers a variety of Adult Faith Formation activities including Apologetics, Bible Study, Book Club, Seeds of Faith and talks with guest speakers designed to increase and nourish our understanding of the Catholic faith and the Catholic Church.
The mission of St. Andrew’s Religious Education Program, which is rooted in and derived from the Roman Canon of the Mass, is simply and always to hold and teach the Catholic Faith that comes to us from the Apostles. We acknowledge the one Teacher, Jesus Christ, and remain steadfastly united to the Catholic Church.
At St. Andrew’s Parish, each child is seen as created in the image and likeness of God and as a reflection of His goodness. Realizing that God has created all things for His glory and our benefit, the challenge of being a living witness to the Gospel is central to the development of each student. Therefore, at St. Andrew’s, an understanding of Jesus and His message is essential to knowing Him, loving Him, and serving Him always.
The core elements listed below form the foundation and strength of St. Andrew’s Religious Education Program. With these elements we seek to cultivate the hearts, minds, and souls of our students to their fullest potential.
