Adult Faith Formation
Adult Faith Formation
Adult faith formation helps Catholics deepen their relationship with God and recommit themselves to the responsibility of sharing their faith with others. Ongoing formation is a lifetime pursuit, with the primary objective to live our Christian vocation to the full and to the end, attaining “the full stature of Christ” and bearing for the Church apostolic “fruit that will last” (Eph 4:13; John 15:16).
Holy Family offers a variety of opportunities for continued education in the faith, including Bible Study after 8:00 AM Mass at St. Philomena on select Sundays, OCIA classes for those exploring the Catholic faith, and Thursday classes offered by Fr. McCarthy (as scheduled, see calendar).
There is a Men’s Faith and Fellowship group, which meets twice a month on the first and third Wednesdays. (Scroll down on this page for more)
We also have a parish subscription to the FORMED.org collection of Catholic books, movies, music and instructional videos. Click on

Men's Faith and Fellowship Group
Deacon Kelly is leading a Men’s group twice a month. The meetings include food, faith, and fellowship, strengthening each other to be more faithful Catholic men. We start at 7:00 PM and end by 9:00 PM. New members are welcome anytime.
On the first Wednesday of the month, they meet at Holy Trinity in Connelly Hall. On the third Wednesday they usually meet off campus for fellowship. Check the calendar for meeting locations. You can join their Flocknote group for reminders and updates on meeting locations.
