Adult Formation
-
-
Spiritual growth is a lifelong process.
-
-
-
Adult faith formation does not end with the reception of Confirmation. We strive to meet this need for knowledge about the Faith through various methods of adult catechesis encompassing adults of all ages.
Every Catholic should aspire to spiritual growth through learning, prayer and study. Every baptized Catholic is called to share in the mission of the Church. In order to live and proclaim the Gospel of Jesus Christ, we must be knowledgeable about our Faith.
Check here as well as the Parish Bulletin for days, times and locations of the various programs/opportunities offered.

Tolkien and the Faith
J. R. R. Tolkien's trilogy, "The Lord of the Rings", has created a cultural impact that has reverberated throughout the decades. When one delves into his tale of good versus evil, a story that emphasizes the triumph of humility over pride, Tolkien’s enduring Faith becomes evident. In this talk, Br. Barnabas O'Reilly, OSB and Fr. Joachim Morgan, OSB will highlight the impact of Tolkien’s Catholic Faith and how it is reflected in his plots, characters, symbols, and backstories. This Adult Faith Formation presentation was given in Fr. O’Connell Hall, located on the grounds of St. Frances Cabrini Catholic Church in Center Twp., PA on March 19, 2022.

Baptism Preparation Class
We believe that every child is a precious gift of God. It is truly wonderful that you wish to share the Faith with your child, for Jesus said: “Let the children come to me.”
As you begin the task of bringing up your child in the Catholic Church, first-time parents who wish to present their child for Baptism are required to take a Baptism Preparation Class. Godparents are welcome and encouraged to participate in this informal discussion that educates parents about the significance of the Sacrament of Baptism and gives insight and encouragement regarding what they will promise to do as Christian parents (and godparents). (Please read the Godparent & Sponsor Guidelines before selecting godparents.)
We are delighted to share with you the rich depth and beauty of what it means to be a Catholic parent. To help you and the presenter focus on the class, it is highly recommended that you find child care if possible. You must register to attend.- Upcoming Class Date & Time: Tuesday, May 31, 2022 at 6:00PM
- Location: Fr. O'Connell Hall on the grounds of St. Frances Cabrini Church
