Growth

We believe that growing in your faith is best done in community.

Adult Faith Formation

Faith Formation Studies

Several times throughout the year, we will journey through a video series by Word on Fire or Ascension. Participants will meet for several consecutive weeks to watch the series, discuss the content, and enjoy some lunch.

Walking with Purpose

Walking with Purpose is a women’s Catholic Bible study held on Thursdays at 7:00 pm from October through early May. The program aims to bring women to a closer relationship with Christ. Personal study and weekly small group discussions link our everyday challenges with the solutions given to us through the teachings of Christ and the Catholic Church.

Religious Ed

Small Groups

Saint Monica is happy to offer Small Groups for religious education in grades 1-6.  Small Groups aims to have less than 10 students per group with the focus of discussion-based education. Our students are led by our talented team of Small Group leaders. A typical Small Group opens with prayer, then a game, and breaks open the Word of God, discussing the upcoming Sunday's Mass readings and how they relate to daily life. Small Groups at Saint Monica seeks to lead children of our parish into a deeper relationship with Jesus Christ and His Church with an emphasis on practical application of our faith. Small Groups takes place on Sundays following the 9:30 am Mass.

Liturgy of the Word for Children

During the Liturgy of the Word, the children of our parish in Pre-Kindergarten through third grade are invited to participate. The children leave the church and move to the Parish Center to hear the scripture readings and Gospel proclaimed at their level. This cost-free program takes place during the 9:30 am Mass on Sunday mornings throughout the school year. 

Our adult leaders present the readings to the group as a whole and then separate the children into the two age groups for discussion and activities. The children rejoin their family members when the Liturgy of the Word concludes. Please contact Jason with any questions.
