WHY CATHOLIC?
Do you want to deepen your Catholic faith and live your life more fully?
Maybe you are looking for a way to reconnect with the Church.
Join us here at St. Robert Bellarmine Parish as we begin the journey!
WHY CATHOLIC? is a parish renewal process that responds to the desire to connect with our Catholic beliefs and renew our identity as Catholics.
WHY CATHOLIC? helps you answer life’s important questions through prayer and faith sharing in small groups.
WHY CATHOLIC? welcomes EVERYONE … young adults, seniors, married, single, life long Catholics, new Catholics, parents teaching the faith to their children, and those who have left the Church and are looking for a way to reconnect.
HOW DOES IT WORK? Small group faith sharing sessions will begin the week of February 12, meet once a week for six weeks and for approximately 90 minutes. Some groups will meet here at the parish and some will meet in homes. The focus for these six weeks will be PRAY: Christian Prayer. Scripture, reflections on why and how we pray, and prayer will be the format. The cost is only $10 for your book. Please consider WHY CATHOLIC? as a way to prepare for and celebrate the sacred season of Lent!
