Our Catholic Beliefs
Living as a Catholic includes many wonderful beliefs, practices, and devotions; too many to catalog here. But we hope to provide you with a brief overview of what we believe and how we live that belief.We hope this resource will be valuable to both interested non-Catholics as well as to those already Catholic who might be looking to deepen the practice of their faith. If you are Catholic and would like to learn about more opportunties for growing in the faith, go to our Living in Faith Together section.
If you want to know more about discovering our Catholic faith as a newcomer to the Church or re-discovering the Catholic faith you received at baptism, you may want to start by exploring our

Our Faith
-
Our Catholic faith comprises what we believe and how we live that belief. For 2,000 years, this Catholic faith has been handed down from one generation to next, starting with Jesus Christ passing the faith to the Twelve Apostles. In our own lives, we may receive that faith from our parents, from friends, or even a stranger we meet.
Learning about God and forming our faith may start for many as children, but can also start at any point in our lives! The important thing to remember, is that faith formation - growing in knowledge of and closer with God is something that should be happening throughout our entire lives - getting us ready to spend eternity in Heaven!
