We meet weekly to discuss various Catholic topics and to have fun within a supportive and caring community. In addition, we host social events and a book club throughout the semester.
  
  If you would like to join our mailing list, or find out more about us, please reach out to Claire McNally ([email protected]). We would love to meet you!
- Catechesis
  Fall 2026
  
  Wednesdays 7:00 p.m., Anabel Taylor Hall
  
  This is a discussion class led by Dcn. Matthew Hall, held concurrently with the Confirmation class. If you are a confirmed Catholic and feel like you want a refresher on some of the basics of our Catholic beliefs and practices, you are very welcome to join! Your presence as a Catholic is an important witness and welcome to the others who are preparing for Confirmation or discerning whether to be baptized and join the Catholic Church.
  
  The class is discussion-based, and while there are certain topics that we always cover we also spend lots of time exploring participants' individual questions and experiences.
- Faith-Sharing Groups
  Small faith sharing groups offer an opportunity to deepen your faith through fellowship, discussion, and reflection. Meeting weekly for about an hour, these groups engage with short spiritual readings and share personal insights in a supportive community. Please sign up using the linked Google form! Small groups will begin the week of September 21st, 2026. For more information, please reach out to Ellie Fredine at [email protected].
