As Catholics, we are called to continue to learn and grow into the person Jesus has called us. If we are not actively being formed in Christ, we are simply conforming to the ways of the world and lacking a genuine commitment to our faith. All are invited and encouraged to join us for one of our adult faith formation programs this fall! 2019 Adult Faith Formation Programs Flyer

Share your faith and love of our Lord with our youngest parishioners this year by volunteering with the IC youth faith formation programs! We have IMMEDIATE needs in the following programs to ensure they continue to operate. Please consider giving an hour of your time to these very important ministries! PARISH SCHOOL OF RELIGION Anyone interested in the opportunity to deepen their faith by teaching or assisting a teacher for 1st-8th grade Parish School of Religion (PSR) students, please contact Paulette Mudrey at icpsr@iccols.org or (614) 668-1292. SUNDAY PRESCHOOL Volunteers are needed to lead and help with this year’s Sunday Preschool. To find out more about volunteering in this ministry, please contact Sr. Ruth at srhamel@iccols.org or (614) 267-9241. SUNDAY CHILDREN’S LITURGY OF THE WORD Consider this opportunity to deepen children’s understanding of the Mass readings by helping to lead the Children’s Liturgy Program on Sunday mornings. Children’s Liturgy is held during the 9:30 a.m. Mass from September until May. Children in grades K to 3 are escorted to Room A of the Rectory, before the Mass readings begin, for child-friendly readings and a reflection that will often include an activity related to the Gospel. They rejoin their families for Mass for the Liturgy of the Eucharist. There is no registration fee for participation in Children’s Liturgy. To find out more about volunteering in the ministry, please contact Sr. Ruth at srhamel@iccols.org or (614) 267-9241.
