Adult Faith Formation
Adult faith formation is perhaps the greatest challenge we face as Catholics because several generations of us have not received a good understanding of the faith. Recognizing that most Catholic adults today have not moved beyond the faith formation they received as young adolescents, we here at St. Stephen have established a number of programs that invite adults to continue their journey in the Catholic Faith.
"Therefore let us move beyond the elementary teachings about Christ and be taken forward to maturity, no laying again the foundation of repentance from acts that lead to death, and of faith in God." (Hebrews 6:1)
Our Aim
This ministry aims to to provide an environment for you and friends to join us in a journey of prayer, reflection, learning, and discussion. Find support and grow in a deeper awareness of what is means to live as a disciple of Jesus in today's world.
