Faith Formation Program

Conversing with God 2009-2010

The Faith Formation Program at St. Columba is a comprehensive, whole community approach to catechesis and ministry.  Presented in this website is a brief description of each Faith Activity that is part of the overall Faith Formation Program.  For your ease, all activities  related to a particular age group (Adults, High School, Middle School,  Elementary School and Preschool) have been arranged on a page together.  The table at the bottom of this page will guide you to the appropriate pages.  Below is a summary of information regarding the Faith Activities offered at St. Columba.  This table is a Quick Reference to activities, dates, times and locations.

Embracing a catechetical model called for by the General Directory for Catechesis, our Faith Formation program is rooted in four Faith Festivals that will be held throughout the year.  These Faith Festivals are an opportunity for us to gather as a parish family, grow as a community in faith, and share our experiences and faith with one another.

Thomas Groome, a Catholic educator, writes that “it takes a village to raise and sustain a Christian.”  We, as the parishioners of St. Columba, are the “village” in Dothan charged with raising and sustaining the future generations in the faith. 

As you examine this Faith Formation information, may your hearts be open to the ways in which we are called to grow in our own faith to share it with others, especially the children of our parish.

Parents, please carefully read the Policy and Procedures and the Role of Parents pages, especially the paragraphs regarding the Drop Off and Pick Up Policies for 1st-8th Grade Students and conduct for High School Students attending LifeTeen.
