Faith Formation

St. Jude’s Faith Formation is dedicated to supporting the faith journey of all our parishioners.  We are committed to sharing the Good News of Jesus Christ in the Catholic tradition through knowledge of the faith, Sacramental Preparation,  liturgical celebrations, prayer, involvement in parish life and outreach.  We provide formal education for youth until they are confirmed as well as a range of opportunities for adults in order to support the lifelong process of growing closer to God.
