THE PARISH CONNECTION


The Search: An Inquiry Study
Exploring life’s biggest questions: Are you searching for something more in life? Curious about faith, God, or the Catholic Church? The Search is a welcoming place to begin. This introductory study is for anyone who wants to explore deeper questions of life and faith in an open, friendly environment.
Whether you are:
Thinking about becoming Catholic
Curious about what Catholics believe
Returning to the Church after time away
Parents seeking sacraments for older children
Or a practicing Catholic looking for a refresher and renewed energy in your faith
Each session includes hospitality, a video, and a meaningful conversation where you can ask honest questions and explore your faith at your own pace
This study also serves as the first step for those who may want to become Catholic and begin the OCIA process (Order of Christian Initiation of Adults).
All are welcome. Come as you are. Invite a friend.
Begins Tuesday, April 14 , 5:30-7:00pm in the Parish Center/Preschool Room. Seven Sessions. Meets Weekly 4/14-5/26.
Child care provided by our high school teens. Register HERE now!
