What do Catholics believe?

The Catholic Church is a complex institution with over 2000 years of accumulated wisdom. Beginning to learn about such an immense subject can be intimidating. Even lifelong Catholics always have something new to learn. Thankfully, the Church understands this challenge and offers numerous ways to learn.

Each one of us in virtue of our baptism is called to live our Faith and to bear witness to the Gospel in our families, friends, parish communities and society. To share in the Church's mission of Evangelization and Catechesis is to grow in our relationship with Jesus Christ. Intellectual formation in the Catholic Faith is of the utmost importance in today’s secular world.
