Formation for Transformation: The Way of Discipleship
Christian formation is the lifelong process of growing in our relationship with God, self, others, and all creation. Every experience in our lives can provide us with the opportunity to express our faith; the challenge we face is recognizing these opportunities and learning ways to live a sometimes counter-cultural life in a secular world.
At St. John’s Cathedral, we offer many opportunities for people of all ages and stages to come together every day of the week, to “read, mark, and inwardly digest” the Word of God, the Love of Christ and the many different ways to express our faith. We believe that through Christian Formation we can be agents of Transformation and thus our logo: Formation for Transformation.
Please join us in one or two or any number of these formation opportunities.
If you have any questions about any of the offerings, please contact Owene Courtney, Director of Christian Formation
