Adult Faith Formation

Adult Faith Formation focuses on deepening initial conversion through OCIA to life of informed faith. It incorporates the catechetical, liturgical, and pastoral ministries. Because it is a form of evangelization, Faith Formation is a lifelong process.

St. William Parish strives to serve the parish needs of Catholic formation and spiritual development of all its members. We recognize that adults are the primary educators of the faith, and our goal is to assist them with a variety of Religious Education Programs.

Rosary

We will begin praying the Rosary this weekend in the church at 11:30AM between the 10AM Mass and the 12:30PM Mass. This will take place on the 2nd and 4th Sundays of the month. We look forward to praying with you.  Please contact Lisa Powaser (lpowaser@stwilliam.com) if you would be interested in leading the Rosary.

OCIA

OCIA stands for the Order of the Christian Initiation of Adults. This the process in which one is guided and cared for as they awaken in faith and are brought into the Catholic Faith. Please join us for our next session beginning Sunday, April 27-7 PM in the St. Paul Room. Register by contacting Deacon Michael Chesley @ mchesley@stwilliam.com

Grief Support Ministry

The fog of grief makes it difficult to see to the other side. What is on the other side? It is different for everyone. What is known about grief is that there is the feeling of being overwhelmed, helpless, angry, depressed; you might even feel like you are going crazy.

For more information regarding this Grief Support Ministry, please contact the rectory.

St. Monica Club

Do you have a child, sibling, parent, or spouse that has left the faith or refuses to enter it? Do you feel hopeless in the battle to save your loved one’s soul? Once per month, on Monday evenings, we will gather as a faith community to call on the intercession of saints that have gone before us. For more information, please contact Lisa Powaser at 313-623-8149, or email me at lpowaser@stwilliam.com.
