Catholicism 101GROW IN FAITH — JOIN ANYTIME!
Catholicism 101 is a weekly class open to all who want to grow in their understanding of the Catholic faith. Each session stands on its own, so you can come whenever you’re able—no need to have attended previous weeks. Topics include the existence of God, the Trinity, the sacraments, prayer, and more.
2025-2026 classes meet Mondays from 6:30–7:15 PM in St. Patrick Church through March 23 (no class Oct. 27, Dec. 1, 8, 22, 29, Jan. 5, or Feb. 16; no in-person meetings on Feb 23 or Mar 2). Come as you are, and learn at your own pace.
