Christian formation is about lifelong learning and education. For each of us, formation is the process of growing in relationship with God, self, others, and all creation. Through learning, we are transformed into the people God wants us to be. The adult formation ministry team seeks to create classes and programs that address the theological and spiritual needs of the congregants of St. Ignatius Church.
