FORMED.org has been purchased by our parish with our sister parish St. Luke's Ordinariate for you, as a parishioner, to enjoy an extensive menu of Catholic media, at no cost to you!
This online media library includes over 4000 movies, documentaries, books, audiobooks, podcasts, and study materials! Now you can experience the truth, beauty, and meaning of the Catholic faith on your computer, tablet, or smartphone whenever and wherever you want!
FORMED enables personal study, parish-based small groups, family discussion, and outreach to loved ones who no longer practice their Faith.
Our parish will be using it in children’s catechesis, sacramental preparation, adult faith formation and more.
