We believe the Catholic Church contains the fullness of the Christian faith and all the gifts that God wants to give to you, His beloved child. Whether you have never stepped foot in a Catholic Church, you used to be Catholic, you are Catholic but haven't completed receiving sacraments, or you are a lifelong Catholic who wants to learn more, you are most welcome!  Catholicism 101 meets from 6:30-7:30pm during Wednesday Church Night at St. Dominic in the Community Center.  Dinner, children's formation, and childcare for babies and toddlers are available! Dinner is served beginning at 5:30pm.

Welcome to Catholicism 201, step two of our discipleship pathway!

After encountering Christ, the story of salvation, and the reasons for our Catholic faith in Catholicism 101, Catholicism 201 is for those ready to dive deeper, exploring the depths of our faith and learning to be transformed as missionary disciples of Jesus.

This year we are journeying through the Catechism of the Catholic Church, swimming in the beauty of our faith as we seek to better know Christ and His Church.

Join us at Wednesday Church Night for Catholicism 201!

Catholicism 301 is step three of our discipleship pathway. After encountering Jesus and the truth of the Catholic faith in Catholicism 101, and being formed as disciples of Jesus Christ in Catholicism 201, Catholicism 301 is the place where we learn to hear the Father's voice, discern our own unique giftings, and learn how to bring Jesus into the world.

‍

Come with an open heart, join a warm community of fellow Catholics, and prepare to be sent as missionary disciples, ready to bring others to our Lord Jesus Christ and His Church.

Holy Week Schedule 2026

If you have never been to this mother of all Liturgies -- join us!

The Easter Vigil, held after sunset on Holy Saturday, is the preeminent, most significant liturgy of the year, celebrating Christ's resurrection. It signifies the shift from darkness to light, featuring a service of light, extensive scripture readings, the initiation of new Catholics (baptism/confirmation), and renewal of baptismal vows.

Exult, let them exult, the hosts of heaven,
exult, let Angel ministers of God exult,
let the trumpet of salvation
sound aloud our mighty King's triumph!

Be glad, let earth be glad, as glory floods her,
ablaze with light from her eternal King,
let all corners of the earth be glad,
knowing an end to gloom and darkness.

Rejoice, let Mother Church also rejoice,
arrayed with the lightning of his glory,
let this holy building shake with joy,
filled with the mighty voices of the peoples.

St Dominic Parish will celebrate the Sacrament of Confirmation with our young people on Saturday, October 3, 2026 with Bishop William Wack presiding. We anticipate a large number of candidates so we are offering two options for candidates to prepare for this beautiful and important sacrament.

To be eligible for these preparation sessions in 2026, the child or teen must be:

• Baptized Catholic
  
• Have already received First Holy Communion (by March 2026)
• Between the ages of 7-18
• Not already confirmed
• Attending Mass weekly
• Demonstrating signs of readiness

If your son or daughter meets these criteria, we encourage them to join us in preparing for Confirmation!

Candidates may not be dropped off for these sessions. At least one parent is required to attend each week with their candidate. Some weeks you'll be together; some weeks we'll have parent formation separate from student classes.

If you are interested in serving as a catechist for either session please email Theresa@saintdominicpc.com
