Adult Education

Adult Spirituality: Journey & Opportunity

 Everyone’s experience of coming to faith & accepting God’s invitation to grow in faith is unique, but some common patterns are the following:

 A need for relationship...with Jesus or perhaps with a member of their family or friend who is a practicing Catholic...

 A feeling of emptiness... perhaps searching for a purpose, meaning in life....

 A need for community...to belong to the community of Jesus’ disciples, to have connectedness with others in a worshiping community....

 A need for a sacramental life...found in the powerful and profound ritual of the Catholic church..

 Lives that are changing, transforming...new marriages, new babies, new age in life, new moves...

 We have 3 processes here at Queen of All Saints that try & address these and other adult issues...

 RCIA   - Begins September 2004 and every Wednesday evening from 7:00-9:00...for those adults who would like to prepare for the sacraments of  Baptism and Communion into the Catholic Church.  

Adult Confirmation - Begin October 2004 and continues for 8 Thursday evenings from 7:00-9:00.    For adults who have been baptized and received communion, but  who have never received the sacrament of Confirmation.  

 Welcome Home - Begins in the Spring of 2005 for those Catholics who have received  the sacraments of Baptism, Communion or Confirmation but who have been away from the church for whatever reason.  We welcome you back and would like to hear why you went away update you on current liturgical practices and help you come back with the community.

 Please call Nancy Tomsic at the rectory - 925-685-8707 to ask questions or register....
