What We Wanted to Learn
How can adult faith formation become a central force in our parish?  Who are we anyway? What makes a good parishioner? How do we want to grow in our faith?  These questions and others were tackled by a diverse group of thirty-seven parishioners from the English-speaking community at St. Francis de Sales.

Committee Work
A great deal of effort went into inviting a group that would reflect the English-speaking community by considering the gender, age, ethnicity and status (married or not, with children or not, working/retired, etc.) of participants. A highly democratic large-group model was selected that would help answer the question: What do our adults need and want to learn? The shape of adult faith formation in the future would be determined by the participants, much less a committee or an individual. Six weekly bulletin inserts informed all parishioners about adult faith formation and invited anyone interested in attending the conference
