On-Line Helps for Adult Faith Formation

 

 

In Our Hearts Were Burning Within Us: A Pastoral Plan for Adult Faith Formation in the United States, the bishops listed (paragraphs 88-96) six dimensions of adult faith formation content.  They are:

·        Knowledge of the Faith

·        Liturgical Life

·        Moral Formation

·        Prayer

·        Communal Life

·        Missionary Spirit

We will use those to help outline the following websites for adult faith formation use.  However, we will begin with general websites.
