The goal of adult faith formation to 'form adults who actively cultivate a lively baptismal and Eucharistic spirituality with a powerful sense of mission and apostolate. Nourished by word, sacrament and communal life, they will witness and share the Gospel in their homes, neighborhoods, places of work and centers of culture" (Our Hearts Were Burning, USCCB # 5).
Characteristics of a lived faith in adult learners:
- Frequent reading of the word of God, sacred writings of our tradition and the official documents of the Church.
- Involvement in the community life and mission of the Church.
- Personal prayer.
- Participation in the works of justice and service to the poor.
- The fulfillment of our human obligations in family and society through the active practice of love for God and neighbor. (OHWB#16-18)
