More and more parishes in the Archdiocese of Detroit are experiencing a positive impact on parish life by participating in the Generations of Faith model for catechesis for all ages.
To learn more about these individual parishes using the Generations of Faith process contact the Office for Faith Formation/Catechetics.
Generations of Faith provides an integrated and comprehensive approach to faith formation that will equip the parish community to become a community of life long learning by creating lifelong faith formation that is centered in the events of church life, embraces all ages and generations, and promotes faith growth at home through parish preparations programs, and, most importantly, through participation in church life.
- Generations of Faith is an innovative approach to parish faith formation that involves all generations in learning and growing together through their experience and participation in church life.
- The Generations of Faith Project helps parishes develop lifelong, intergenerational, Church-based faith formation that is focused on the educative power of the church community: the feasts and season of the Church Year, sacraments and liturgy, prayer and spirituality, justice and service, proclamation of the Word and community life.
- The Generations approach utilizes a catechetical process of preparing all ages and all generations for meaningful participation in church events through a variety of learning programs, engaging them in church events and guiding them in reflecting and applying the significance and meaning of the events for their lives as Catholics.
