Adult Faith Formation

The goal of the Adult Faith Formation Program at Saint John Neumann is to conform persons to Christ, which is to bring all those involved in the various dimensions of Adult Faith Formation Program to a mature understanding and experience of Christ as the center and well-spring of God’s eternal plan for them and for the whole of creation. This task is approached through advanced study and exploration of the meaning of Christ’s words, actions, and signs. In this respect, the aim of adult catechesis is more than intellectual assent to doctrinal principles. It is to help persons to grow in communion with Jesus Christ - through Whom they may enter into and enjoy a share of the life and love of the Holy Trinity.


See the Religious Formation Google Calendar for current Adult Faith Formation Offerings.

College-Age Ministry (Adults Ages 18 – 28)

Living as authentic Catholics is difficult to do in our colleges, our homes and online. St. John Neumann College-Age Ministry is an opportunity for young adults to become involved in the parish and learn about their faith with peers. Come discuss and pray about every day pressures of society to conform our faith and our actions to today’s popular ways of thinking and acting. 

Our first meeting will be held on OCTOBER 17th. We plan to meet on Tuesday’s evenings from 6:30 P.M. to 9 P.M. at the Neumann House.

Please feel free to stop by!

Adult  Confirmation

Are you a Catholic adult but haven't received the Sacrament of Confirmation?         
    
Beginning in March of this coming Spring, St. John Neumann Parish will offer sacramental preparation sessions for adults who are already baptized Catholic and have already received the Sacrament of Holy Eucharist, but still need to receive the Sacrament of Confirmation.
  
Confirmation preparation sessions will be conducted on Thursday evenings from 7pm to 9pm in the Media Center (next to the Religious Formation Office) starting on March 5th and lasting for a total of 12 sessions.

Prepared candidates will then be registered with the Archdiocese of Washington to receive the Sacrament of Confirmation on Pentecost at St. Matthew's Cathedral.

If you would like additional information, please contact the Religious Formation Office.
