Lay Formation Program with the conferral of the Apostolic Parish Diploma of Our Lady of Perpetual Help and St. Helena of the True Cross of Jesus

This program involves an on-going serious commitment to allowing the Holy Spirit to do a work of transformation in us.  Our goal is to experience a fuller life of grace through discipline in four different areas of life:  spiritual, human, intellectual, and pastoral.  God wants a balanced life for us. Each participant in the program must be a Catholic in good standing with the Church.  A serious commitment to the program must be made.  The academic dimension of the lay formation program is comprised of a three-year course of subjects from the Catechism of the Catholic Church ending with the award of the Apostolic Parish Diploma.  To be accepted into the program a serious commitment to develop a mature life of prayer will be needed.  Completion of The Real Life program and retreat is a pre-requisite.  A meeting with a formation advisor each month of the year will be required. This is a unique program and has been developed to enhance the lives of Catholics moving along the path of their spiritual journeys.   For more information please contact:  OLPH at www.olphcctex.org 361- 991-7891 or St. Helena at   www.sthelenacctx.org
