Course Descriptions
I Believe - We Believe
“I Believe – We Believe” is a class on
the Creed, which we proclaim every Sunday during Mass. To most of
us, these words are very familiar. But, have you ever really thought
about them? Ever given much thought to what the words actually mean?
The Nicene Creed is an ancient statement of belief – a rather concise statement
of the basic teachings of the Catholic Church. In this one-day class,
we will explore where this creed comes from, what it tells us about our
faith, and reflect on what it means for us. This will be a day of
“study,” faith sharing, and prayer – an opportunity to enrich your faith
and nourish your spirit.
Who is Jesus
We are not saved by a program, but by
a person. It can be easy for those of us who work for the Church
to get caught up in our activities and lose touch with this reality.
It is good for us to take time to remember that at the heart of our every
effort is a person – the person of Jesus Christ. But do we really
know him as we ought – those of us who are teachers and workers in his
vineyard? Can we truly answer the question ‘Who is Jesus?’
In this one-day course, we will attempt to deepen our knowledge and understanding
of the person who is the source and inspiration for all we do.
