Faith Formation

Faith formation is at the heart of what the Christian life is all about. As we engage in daily spiritual practices, as we participate in the rituals of our faith communities, as we work for justice and peace—our faith is nurtured, enlivened, sustained, and formed. The ministry of faith formation takes seriously the prophet Isaiah’s image of Potter God actively forming humanity: we are always in formation by and for God.
