Adult formation

Adult formation at Saint James’ Warrenton focuses on learning about our faith, listening to God, making disciples and strengthening our spiritual journeys.

We believe learning comes from Scripture, tradition, reason and experience. We believe learning is lifelong and involves asking questions, having meaningful conversations, seeking insight and listening with care.
