About this event
A Community Awaits You! Do you feel called to a closer relationship with Jesus Christ? Adults and post-confirmation youth are warmly welcome!
“Make them sit down in groups of about fifty each.” — Luke 9:14
In Luke 9:10–17, Jesus withdraws privately with his disciples. When crowds follow Him, the disciples suggest sending them away as evening approaches, but Jesus refuses. Instead, He has them sit in small groups and feeds them.
Being fed by Jesus in a small group setting is the core dynamic of the Neocatechumenal Way.
We invite everyone—parishioners and non-parishioners alike—to attend a series of catechesis (talks) that offer an opportunity to reflect on our lives and discover what it means to be nourished by Christ. Participants receive spiritual nourishment by listening to the Word of God, celebrating the sacraments together, and growing in mutual love through the Holy Spirit.
Through these gatherings, participants grow in intimacy with the Lord, find deep reconciliation with their personal histories, and receive the grace to love others as Christ loves us. This dynamic also provides invaluable support to families in passing on the faith to their children and helps post-confirmation youth remain actively connected to the Church.
Because we have received freely, we share this freely: there is no cost to attend. Whether you stay for a few sessions or complete the entire path, we are grateful for every moment shared and trust fully in God’s timing.
