About our Program
The Adult Faith Formation Process of Saint Bede Catholic Church recognizes the importance of the catechesis of adults, strives to promote and nourish a mature adult faith that will foster true discipleship. Parishioners are invited to encounter Jesus and grow in the fullness of their Catholic faith through a comprehensive catechetical and spiritual formation process. We also strive to foster a growing Adult Ministry program to encourage retreat opportunities and fellowship events. Check here often for additional program offerings!
If you would like to see additional programs offered and/or have some ideas, please contact Deacon Grimm or call the office at
