Adult Faith Formation

We provide opportunities for life long learning which will enable our parishioners -both English and Spanish speakers- with opportunities to better know, love, and live our catholic faith and to be a witnessing presence to each other and the world around us.

WHAT'S HAPPENING:


Are you interested in increasing your faith and learning more about our rich Catholic heritage? We have some really great groups to help you do this.

The Adult Faith Formation Committee 

Guided by the Holy Trinity, the St. Matthew Adult Education Committee strives to deepen our Adult parishioner’s relationship with God. We are committed to fulfilling the catechetical needs of adults by educating the mind and inspiring the spirit through the study of the Scripture, the Apostolic Tradition and Magisterial Teachings. The time commitment required is a meeting on the fourth Tuesday of each month from 7-8:30 p.m., plus assistance at committe-sponsored events.  If you would like to know more about us, or join our efforts, please contact Peggy Toole, at 503-648-1998 ext. 258 or ptoole@stmatthewhillsboro.org.
