Share your faith with the Next Generation. Psalm 78 says, "What we have heard and know; things our ancestors have recounted to us. We do not keep them from our children; we recount them to the next generation, the paiseworthy deeds of the Lord and His strength, the wonders that he performed." We are all called to pass on the faith to children. Do you feel a special call to share this faith that you love with the children and teens of our parish? If so, we are looking for Catechists and assistants for Sunday Faith Formation. If you are interested and would like to learn more, contact Claire Thompson at 317-283-5508, ext. 1124.
