Adult Faith Formation
Formation in your Catholic faith does not end with the Sacrament of Confirmation or graduation from PSR or graduation from a Catholic high school or college. The Holy Spirit helps us deepen our faith and love for Jesus Christ and the Church through ongoing adult formation. Enriching our understanding of our Catholic faith has many blessings, among them enabling us to better pass along the faith to our children.
St. Louis' Paul VI Instittute explains adult formation on its webpage. Visti the webpage and find out about "spiritual gravity." You will also find a listing of courses offered through the Institute.
For those desiring a better understanding of their faith and its meaning in their lives and work.
To develop and enhance attitudes, knowledge and skills suited for service in the Church.

Take Time for Discerning God's Will
St. Louis has been blessed with retreat centers that offer daily, weekly, and annual opportunities for getting away from the daily busy-ness of our lives. If you have not been hearing God's voice lately, maybe it is time to spend some time alone in prayer, in the silence, in the stillness where God can speak to your heart.
