Faith formation is the process of forming the whole person; growing in love and knowledge of Jesus. Faith formation continues forever, as our relationship with God becomes richer and deeper through the ages. How does faith formation happen? Just turn to the Gospels and we see it. Christ, in his ongoing relationship with the Twelve Apostles, constantly engages in faith formation.
