Family Faith Formation
As we journey through 2022 together our community grows as one family. Always seeking to reach out to others in our YEAR of COMPASSION through our thoughts, words, prayers, and actions as we grow more compassionate hearts.
We begin with a vision of what being compassionate truly means. For us to share in the suffering of another person means that we can bring light into the pain of that person's life. Just as Jesus's love and compassion led him to the cross and provided us with redemption, we too can walk with the suffering, being a redemptive sign in their time of need.

Daily Routine
In the busyness of life it can be easy to put aside simple practices that we know are good for us such as eating healthy and exercising regularly. We know that we need to have a routine to ensure we actively keep these important practices in our lives. Our ongoing faith formation is also another important daily practice. Many people have their own daily routine and we would encourage you to continue this routine during these times. Below is an example of a routine you may want to reflect upon as you consider your ongoing relationship with Jesus.
