Get Formed and Reformed


            As we grew up, we were formed in our faith at home, at the Catholic school, and at faith formation programs.  Our formation consisted in learning what we believe, in experiencing the beauty of prayer, and in developing a Catholic mindset and outlook on life.
            As we grow older, we need to reform and reinforce our faith: appreciate it again, gain greater understanding, experience new forms of prayer.  Lent has been a traditional time to season our faith life and explore the depths of our faith.

            During Lent, Msgr. Aucoin will offer sessions.  The topics are listed below.  No registration is needed to participate.  You are not committed to attending all the sessions since each one is independent of the other.  Each session will last 60 – 75 minutes.  The format for each session will be: video, instruction, discussion, prayer.  Here’s the schedule:
