Learning: How We Grow

The Parish Faith Formation Ministry at the Catholic Community of Pleasanton has the sole purpose of helping people grow in the image of Christ. This vision is realized by providing programs of formation for our children and adults that first win their hearts (evangelization), then equip their minds (catechesis), and then send them forth (service). 

Our parish Faith Formation (FF) programs reflect ministry to and with children, youth, and adults through small faith-sharing groups, opportunities for service to parish & community, and an emphasis on the development of a deeper Catholic Christian identity for all members of our parish family. ​​
