Faith Formation
Welcome!
The Diocese of Grand Rapids supports and strengthens those who evangelize and accompany young people as they encounter and follow Jesus Christ as missionary disciples.
The Office of Faith Formation does this by:
- Forming, equipping, and supporting parish, school, and organizational leaders in their ministry with young people and their families.
- Modeling and fostering a ministry of accompaniment among young people of all cultures, languages, socioeconomic and geographic realities.
- Partnering with parents to support families of young people as they witness to Jesus Christ in their daily lives.
