Adult Faith Formation

Living out the faith is a lifelong process that requires us to respond to God's call to know, love, and serve him. We do so by seeking a deeper understanding of what he teaches through the Scriptures and the Church, strengthening our relationship with him by prayer and the sacraments, and giving of ourselves in service to our neighbor. At Immaculate Conception, we hope to enable our parishioners to live out their faith more fully through a variety of events and programs. Subscribe to ICC's Flocknote to receive notifications regarding Adult Faith Formation. We invite those who are not Catholic to learn more about Becoming Catholic.

Join us as we read and discuss works of great literature. We will begin with Leisure: The Basis of Culture by the Catholic philosopher Josef Pieper. It is an easy-to-read introduction to why it is important for the human person and society to engage in "leisure." Click on one of the following links to purchase it directly from the publisher or from Amazon. We will meet at 6:30 PM in Portable B (located next to the school's playground). You can join virtually via Zoom by clicking here. Contact Fr Jason for more information, FrJason.Allan@iccdenton.org.

Join us to learn more about Heaven, Hell, and Purgatory by journeying through Dante's Inferno, Purgatorio, and Paradiso. You do not need a copy of Dante's work nor have read it before. We will meet at 6:30 PM in the choir room (located in the front of the office building). You can join virtually via Zoom by clicking here. Contact Fr Jason for more information, FrJason.Allan@iccdenton.org.

Join us at Denton County Brewing Co just off the Denton Square for fellowship and learning more about our Catholic faith. Our next event will be on September 19th at 7 PM. Come meet our new pastor, Fr Matthew Tatyrek, and ask him questions about the Faith.

Expand your knowledge in the Catholic Faith. Adult Faith Formation has two classes to work with your schedule. Sunday Mornings in the AE room attached to the ICCS Gym at 8:30 AM and Sunday evenings in classroom 209 at 6:00 PM. The schedule coincides with Sunday faith formation of our youth so that their parents/guardians can grow in their faith at the same time — no need to leave and come back for picking them up. Prayer, expanding your Catholic faith knowledge, and fellowship are the focus of each class. This school year we will be covering John Bergsma’s Bible Basics for Catholics – A New Picture of Salvation History. For more information, please contact Celeste Pilgrim, cpilgrim@centurytel.net.

Please join us each week for an opportunity to reflect on the upcoming Sunday Mass readings. We meet on Wednesdays at 10:00 AM in Portable B (Northside of the school). For the specific schedule of meetings and any further information, please contact Tom and Kathleen Sands, thomassands@sbcglobal.net.

Our parish provides all of our parishioners access to the Formed website. It provides a wide selection of movies, podcasts, and other media to help form you in the faith. Click here to learn how to sign up for free.
