Who is Family Formation For?
Family Formation at All Saints is an inter-generational experience no matter what background, age, family composition, or faith knowledge someone has, they are welcome here! You may have grade school children, you may be retired, you may be discerning marriage with a partner. There are no requirements or pre-requisites to partake in Family Formation. In a very basic way, Family Formation is about accompanying families and individuals into a relationship with Jesus Christ.

What about CoVID-19?Family Formation will be kicking off completely virtual this year. You can participate from the comfort of your home! We will have a few gathered online sessions, some activities to complete from our website, fun prayer activities using an awesome app, and check-in’s with sponsor families. There may be stress in planning other activities but we care about you, which is why we have developed a truly family centered curriculum!

When do we start?
Our first parent session will be Wednesday September 2nd, 2020 @ 6:30 PM via Zoom. Family Formation meets via Zoom Conference the first Wednesday of every month and check-ins occur near the middle of the month. During the year we will meet every month except January as the first of the month would fall in winter break.
If conditions should allow, we are eager to resume our typical shared dinner and catechetical session together with our usual break-out sessions and activities. However, due to the nature of this year we will permanently offer online resources and accompaniment no matter what stage we are on of resuming normal sessions. At this time it does seem unlikely that we would be able to gather until a COVID19 vaccine is readily available to all / herd immunity is established.

How do we register?
Registration is simple, each family registers with one form and one simple fee which applies to all in-Parish Formation & Youth Ministry programming. Completed registration form and payment may be mailed, or dropped off in our safe drop box.
If the Family Fee is too much for your family at this time, don’t worry! We don’t turn anyone away. The Gospel isn’t a commodity, these fees just help us cover our curriculum / material expenses. Simply call the parish office (319.520.7317) and ask for Program Director Trevor Pullinger. We will give you a confidential and flexible scholarship or payment options.
