As Adult Catholics we should be striving each day to be developing our knowledge of our faith.  Our faith journey changes during all the changes in our life and by continuing to learn more we strengthen and nourish that faith.  St. Thomas More parish offers a variety of programs, classes, and groups to help adults expand and develop their relationship with Christ and each other.  Check this page frequently for updates about new programs.  Please contact Sharon Hall, shall@stthomasmorechurch.org,  if you have any questions or suggestions for new programs.
