Adult and Family Formation Groups

ARC-Adult Religious Catechesis

ARC is an adult education ministry with the mission of engaging the parishioners of St. Paul of The Cross to live a more abundant life in Christ by seeking to more fully know and understand the truth and beauty of the Catholic faith. We do this through discussion and instruction in an environment that allows us to question, grapple with, and ultimately uphold the teachings of Christ, preserved and passed on to us through his Church.

Our programs are held in the Deacon Joe Community Center, begin at 6:00 PM and run to about 7:30 PM, so it’ not a late evening. Light refreshments and beverages will be available for all in attendance as well as childcare. There is no sign-up necessary, just show up on Wednesday evening.

2025-2025 Schedule TBA

All sessions are 6:00-7:30 pm in the Deacon Joe Community Center.

Catholic Book Club

  • Read books that help to grow your understanding of your Catholic faith.
  • Share fellowship and faith with your church community.

A passion… for the Eucharist! New sessions will begin the week of January 8, 2024, Wednesdays at 9 am or Thursdays at 6 pm. Please sign up in the Narthex!

The Society of St. Vincent de Paul

Together, we are the hands and feet of Jesus, doing His work and serving those He dearly loves. Sharing our gifts is a clear demonstration that people of faith are never alone. When we serve God and our Church by serving the poor, we really do make a difference!

Food Pantry Hours: EVERY Monday from 10:00 am to 12:00 pm. Third Monday of the month from 5:30 pm-6:30 pm.

RCIA

The Rite of Christian Initiation for Adults meets 6-7:30 pm on Wednesdays (from September to May) to delve into the Catholic faith. Food and childcare provided.

Rosary Making Ministry

The Rosary making class is the last Saturday of the month following the 5:00 pm Mass. These Rosaries are nice to hand out at St. Vincent de Paul food pantry. This can lead into a great conversation about God. We have people stop into the church on a daily basis and ask if they can take one or two. Our church alone goes through quite a few and others are given to area churches in the Diocese to share. No need to worry about dinner because the friendly people who come like to provide food to share among everyone. All are welcome to come to this great ministry!

Young at Heart (55 and older)

Join us for Mass at 10:30 am, a short presentation on topics of the faith and food and fellowship.
