The ministry consists of a team of parishioners as well as sponsors and additional parish support personnel. Those invited to participate include those who wish to become Roman Catholic, those interested in learning more about the Catholic faith, and those who are now Roman Catholic and seek an increased understanding or updating of their faith. Meetings are held on Monday evenings in the lower level of Tiny Tim's Center from 7:00-9:00 pm. Sessions involve faith sharing with respect for the traditions brought by participants, formal catechesis, and liturgical celebration.
