Parish of Saint Columbkille—Go and make Disciples.

 


Adult Religious Formation

St. Columbkille's Adult Religious Formation helps to create a community of faith that is a witness to the Gospel and whose participants actively work to bring life to the reign of God. Adult faith formation invites us to make the fundamental connection between faith and life.

The Adult Religious Formation office makes available programs and opportunities in and near Omaha, Nebraska.  Programs, retreats, Mission Week, Bible Studies and speakers are presented throughout the year in response to the needs and interests of St. Columbkille parishioners. Please watch the bulletin for details.
