Parish Faith Formation: Matthew Jodziewicz MJodziewicz@corpuschristicos.org
God takes all of us on journeys. There is not a single person, Catholic, Protestant, non-denominational, or otherwise, who is not being called by God into deeper communion. He longs for us and seeks us out, especially when we feel unlovable and forgotten. Just think of the great converts, St. Augustine, St. Ignatius, St. Mary of Egypt, and so many others. Today, there are few more compelling conversion stories than Fr. Donald Calloway, who moved from Japanese drug runner to Catholic priest. I highly recommend watching his conversion story here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uE3KMKmhbVA . Why do I mention all of this? Because Corpus Christi’s OCIA classes will begin this coming September. If you, or someone you know, is either not Catholic and interested in the Catholic Church, or are missing your Sacraments (First Communion and Confirmation), then please reach out to me! Many people are allowed to audit the classes and attend the sessions even if they are not fully sure of the Catholic Faith. MJodziewicz@corpuschristicos.org

Parish School of Religion (PSR): Corpus Christi offers a weekly faith formation and religious education opportunity for grades PreK through 7th every Sunday during the school year, typically beginning in September and ending on Divine Mercy Sunday.
PSR is a chance for your children to grow closer to Jesus, who pleaded with us, “Let the children come to Me, and do not prevent them; for the kingdom of heaven belongs to such as these.” (Matthew 19:14) We have an experienced team of catechists who have a passion for sharing the Faith with the youngest members of our diocese. If you are interested in learning more about Corpus Christi’s Parish School of Religion, please reach out to our Director of Religious Education, Matt Jodziewicz, at MJodziewicz@corpuschristicos.
