Faith Formation at San Isidro Catholic Church

Growing in Faith Through Sacraments & Community

Faith Formation: A Life-Long Journey

At San Isidro, Faith Formation is seen as a lifelong process of discovery and transformation. Whether someone is just beginning their walk with Christ or deepening decades of devotion, faith grows through prayer, learning, and participation in the life of the Church. 

The Holy Trinity—Father, Son, and Holy Spirit— guides this journey, shaping our hearts to recognize God’s presence in our families, our work, and our community. Through ongoing education, worship, and fellowship, parishioners are invited to grow together in a shared mission of faith.

Faith Formation for High School Students

For teens, faith formation becomes an opportunity to make their faith their own. The High School Ministry at San Isidro helps young people connect faith with daily life, build friendships rooted in Christ, and prepare for the Sacrament of Confirmation. The ministry offers youth group gatherings, retreats, and service projects throughout the year. High school students are invited to grow in both confidence and conviction, learning that faith isn’t just something to believe in—it’s something to live out courageously.

Community and Fellowship

At its heart, Faith Formation at San Isidro Catholic Church is about more than learning—it’s about belonging. Through shared worship, community service, and parish events, the people of San Isidro form a true family of faith. Parents, catechists, and parishioners work together to guide one another toward Christ, supporting a community where spiritual growth and fellowship thrive side by side. In every season of life, the parish reminds us that faith is stronger when lived in communion with others.

Sacraments and Faith Formation

Through Confirmation, the baptized are sealed with the Holy Spirit. This sacrament deepens baptismal grace, empowering believers to live courageously and bear witness to their faith. The gifts of the Spirit — wisdom, understanding, and fortitude — equip us for service in the world.

Faith Formation for Children

Children are the heartbeat of San Isidro’s Children’s Ministry, where faith takes root through joyful learning and community. The parish offers programs for Pre-K through 8th grade, combining engaging lessons, scripture, and service opportunities that make faith both fun and meaningful. In these formative years, children discover the love of Jesus and the beauty of belonging to His Church. Parents are encouraged to register their children early to ensure placement, and program requirements are designed to support the family’s active participation in parish life and Sunday Mass.

Adult Faith Formation Opportunities

Spiritual growth doesn’t end at graduation—it evolves. San Isidro’s Adult Faith Formation programs invite parishioners to deepen their understanding of Catholic teaching and apply it to modern life. From small group studies and parish series like Faith Matters to diocesan workshops through the Diocese of Raleigh, adults have many ways to renew their spiritual lives. Whether someone is returning to the Church or seeking to grow deeper in understanding, these opportunities keep faith alive and flourishing.

Faith Formation for All Ages

Faith Formation at San Isidro Catholic Church is an open invitation—to learn, to grow, and to walk with God every step of the way. From a child’s first encounter with Jesus in the Eucharist to an adult’s rediscovery of purpose through prayer, every moment in faith formation strengthens the Church community and brings hearts closer to Christ.

For more information or to register for programs, parishioners are encouraged to contact the Faith Formation office or visit the San Isidro Catholic Church website for current schedules and updates.

Together, the people of San Isidro continue to live their mission: to grow in faith, serve in love, and walk with Christ.
