Did you have a memorable Sunday school experience growing up?
Maybe you know someone who did? Be a part of a team listening for where the Spirit is moving in how we teach and form our children in the faith.
This isn't a call for teachers (though we're listening if you're interested!), but for a few people who'd like to gather feedback, inventory our gifts, learn our history, and dream some options for children's formation going forward.
If your curiosity has been piqued, contact Fr. John. He eagerly awaits your call!
