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.
