Adult Faith Formation

All Adult Faith Formation classes require registration and pre-payment (if applicable).  Click in the class area (scroll down).

Whether we call it Adult Faith Formation, Adult Education or Adult Catechesis, it is agreed that “the catechesis of adults…is the principal form of catechesis, because it is addressed to persons who have the greatest responsibilities and the capacity to live the Christian message in its fully developed form (#593 Catechesi Tradendae).  As St. James continues to grow we also continue to strive to not only offer adult formation but recognize its significance and role within the parish, “Catechesis of adults must have high priority at all levels of the church…because of its importance and because all other forms of catechesis are oriented in some way to it” (National Directory for Catechesis). 

Opportunities, both formal and informal, are designed to evangelize, clarify religious and moral questions, build community and deepen one’s faith with the Risen Lord while embracing the sacramental life.  What we are currently offering and have scheduled upcoming opportunities.
