Who and What We Are: NEW 2012 LOC symbol
The Light of Christ is the faith formation program for the six parishes of the Christ Our Hope Cluster. What is Faith Formation? Faith formation is the new and more accurate term for what you might know as religious education or CCD. But we are much more than the program you grew up with. Faith Formation is built on the idea that we are all on a LIFE LONG faith formation journey. Faith formation, learning about God and growing closer to Him and Jesus did not end when you received the Sacrament of Confirmation. Confirmation was just one milestone on that journey.
The Light of Christ offers faith formation for everyone, including adults. So come and learn more about our main program, Generations of Faith, and we look forward to having you join us in the near future. |
Below is Fr. Aaron's message to all parents. As we start the 2018 formation year, Fr. Aaron shares his vision for faith formation in the cluster with parents and grandparents in this short 7 1/2 minute video. In his message Fr. Aaron mentions a sheet with information on options for family formation. Please see the document "Faith Formation Electives" to the left for more information.

Seven volunteers from the cluster spent the day, July 25th, volunteering at Camp Courageous of Iowa in Monticello. Camp Courageous is a year round camp for individuals with physical and intellectual disabilities. They run completely off of donations and depend on volunteers to help meet their needs.
Below, volunteers helped to shuck a pick-up truck load of sweet corn to be frozen to provide meals during the winter. In the afternoon, volunteers helped to clear a 300 yard path through timber to allow the future construction of a property line fence.
