Lay Formation

Lay Formation

Lay Formation is about forming people by learning more about our faith, our belonging to a vibrant Catholic community, deepening our relationship with God, and increasing our prayer life.

Lay Formation is an academic and pastoral formation program for Catholic men and women interested taking the 'next step' on their Christian journey. Inspired and informed by the Second Vatican Council's Decree on the Apostolate of the Laity (APOSTOLICAM ACTUOSITATEM) and Pope Francis' Evangelii Gaudium - The Joy of the Gospel, this unique program builds on four key pillars of the New Evangelization; we provide a deepening awareness of God's personal love and activity, create opportunities for encountering Christ and entering into a transformative relationship with him, help individuals to integrate that relationship into every aspect of our lives, and empower women and men to follow Christ's commission to "Go and make disciples of all nations" (Matt 28:19) is an academic and pastoral formation program for Catholic men and women interested taking the 'next step' on their Christian journey.
