FFF – Family Faith Formation Program

What is FFF?

Family Faith Formation (FFF) is a program where parents take the lead in teaching the faith at home, supported by the parish.

Instead of weekly classroom instruction, families gather periodically at the parish and continue learning and practicing the faith together at home.

The model reflects the Church’s teaching that parents are the first and most important teachers of their children in the faith.

Who Should Participate?

Family Faith Formation is ideal for:

• Families who want to learn the faith together
• Parents who want to take an active role in their child’s formation
• Families seeking a more flexible schedule

Children must be baptized Catholic to prepare for sacraments.
