Faith Formation is an opportunity to encounter the Living Christ. At St. Bartholomew, we strive to provide the knowledge our children and families need to walk closer with Jesus. With this knowledge, a personal relationship with Jesus is the reward. He is the strength and the light needed for our lifelong spiritual journey.
St. Bartholomew’s Family Faith Formation program does this through a diverse faith environment, using the five tasks of catechesis that is dedicated to helping each and every person recognize their individual faith potential.
We are committed to maintaining a Catholic community of companions on the journey in their faith development and towards global service, and life-long learning.
We live this out by showing respect to all people, by being responsible for our actions, by showing reverence and by making right choices.
Family-centered catechetical programs are opportunities for parents to catechize their children directly, for spouses to catechize each other and for children to catechize one another and their parents” (National Directory for Catechesis #61.2).
