Hello!
After an abrupt end to the year of Adult and Children's Faith Formation and Sacramental Preparation this past spring, we have been missing you and working to create a new plan for this year. Our hope is to create a program that accomplishes the three goals of St. Richard's Faith Formation: to feel known, to have fun, and to experience whole-person growth in Christ and our faith, while also allowing for new COVID-19 safety precautions.
