FORMED – A Parish Resource
Developed by the Augustine Institute, FORMED contains
hundreds of resources accessible to members of our parish. Purchased by the
Diocese, it is a wonderful opportunity for us to access videos for adults and
children at no cost to us. Topics range from the Sacraments to the Saints
and various topics of interest about our Faith. The
following link: https://formed.org/ will take you right
to the application where you can access this treasure trove of our Faith.
For questions contact Adele Slebodnik at Saint John the Baptist Church
