Just Faith - is a conversion based process that seeks to integrate personal spirituality and social ministry.  The goal of Just Faith is to empower participants to develop a passion and thirst for justice and after the program, to express this passion in concrete acts of social ministry.  Just Faith has been an effective tool in training and forming parishioners to be agents of social transformation.

Cursillo - The goal of the Cursillo Movement is to make Christian community possible in families, neighborhoods, parishes, work situations and all places where people live. It provides a method for anyone to live a Christian life in a natural way. 

In the Cursillo Movement, we approach evangelization as a very natural act of being Christ-like within each of our daily activities. We realize that while most Christians would like to live their lives in a Christ-like manner, the pressures of the world often make this difficult. The Cursillo Movement provides a method that provides each of us with the tools, the mentality, the strength, and the support to make this natural way of evangelization possible. The Movement is a deliberate act to bring Jesus Christ into the everyday world. Members become agents for change in their families, work situations, neighborhoods, social gatherings, everywhere where they live their day-to-day lives.

 The Movement evolved from Spain, where it originated in the 1940s. It developed as the founders prayed, worked and talked together to share their thoughts about the state of the world and the effectiveness of their efforts to bring the light of Christ to it. On the natural level alone, the story of the Cursillo Movement is exciting. But it is an even more exciting story on the spiritual level. It is the story of how God taught a group of men how to work for Him in an effective way, a way that bears fruit. The first Cursillo in the United States was held in Waco, Texas in 1957. As of 1981, almost all of the 160 dioceses in the US had introduced the Cursillo Movement. Today it is a worldwide movement. The Movement is a member of the Pontifical Council for the Laity in Rome.

Landings - A Paulist Father's program to welcome back inactive Catholics. The heart of the program is the shared faith stories of each participant and the listening ear we offer each other. This program is not the "saved" preaching to the "lost". The program is to answer questions and to help resolve doubts. Volunteers need only a willingness to listen, share and understand. Volunteers will be provided with a handbook and an opportunity to "sit-in" on a session to become familiar with the process. To learn more click on the link below.
