Adult Programs and Studies

Programs:

• Member to Disciple provides adults at Our Lady of Mount Carmel Parish with opportunities to grow into an adult disciple through prayer conversation and reflection with a small group of like-minded people in the comfort of a living room 4 times in the fall, and 4 times during Lent. Through presentations, prayer, discussion and reflection, adult believers are challenged to find deeper levels of understanding and new ways to relate to God.

They meet monthly to share food, fellowship, and faith.  This group can enliven your faith and marriage, and offer support that fosters relationships with other couples in the parish. Come take part in this truly enriching group that assists you in becoming a better spouse, parent, and Catholic.
