Catholicism 101 is a three-week
introduction to the Catholic Faith for those who want to better understand their faith.

Jesus calls each of us to follow Him in love and invite others to do the same. Find materials and information for living out the New Evangelization in our parish right here!

The Main Event is a thorough study of the Catholic Faith, beginning in the fall and finishing in the spring annually.
