Practicing the Catholic Social Teachings
The opportunity to support others and learn about service is a Catholic practice. It comes directly from the teachings of Christ as well as the historical traditions gain by centuries of faith.
The Catholic Social Teachings from our Catechism convict
us to put our faith in action by helping and caring for people
and the world God has blessed us with.
Mass Reflections: Why?
Making notes about Mass are a requirement we have for Confirmation for a variety of reasons.
± It develops focus at and devotion to Mass.
± It prepares you to dwell upon the Word of God.
± It teaches you about Eucharist, the Source & Summit of our Faith.
± It helps you to retain and understand life in the Church.
± It instills in us the importance of a faith community.
± It provides time to build your personal, spiritual growth.
± It gives you a place to begin as you learn more about faith.
We ask for reflections if you are involved from the congregation or in the ministries. The focus of your reflection may change due to your involvement. 20 Masses are required during the preparation time. Fill out a reflection for each Mass you participate in.
