As a Catholic community in the midst of a secular world, we are called to foster and grow our Faith in all stages of our life, and, as an act of love for our fellow humans, to share that love in all we do and say.
As adult Catholics who have received the Sacrament of Confirmation we enjoy the benefits of the Gifts of the Holy SPirit: Wisdom, Understanding, Knowledge, Counsel, Fortitude, Piety and Fear of the Lord. Our daily task is to practice our Faith with the strength and intelligence these Gifts bring us.
At Most Holy Redeemer, the opportunities to learn more about your Faith include:
1. The Parish Religious Education Program, CCD. CCD is for children from kindergarten through the 8th grade.
2. "LIFT." This is the name we have chosen for our Adult Faith Formation Ministry ("LIFT" stands for "Living In Faith Together"). The LIFT Team works on this website, conducts various events around the Church Year, sponsors a series of exciting and informative Scripture Studies, and works closely with the pastor to help set a tone of love and acceptance within our whole parish family.
3. RCIA which stands for the "Rite of Catholic Initiation of Adults"). Our RCIA is a year-round program which provides full instruction for those seeking to become Catholic or who need to receive Sacraments beyond Baptism.
4. "CONFIRMED," which is the Most Holy Redeemer parish Sacrament of Confirmation preparation program. CONFIRMED provides education for Catholics who are Baptized, have received Reconciliation and the Holy Eucharist but who want to complete their "Sacraments of Initiation" by receiving the Sacrament of Confirmation and all its wonderful graces and Gifts of the Holy Spirit.
