Becoming Catholic - Classes begin in October

Do you ever ask yourself…

 

What am I looking for in life? What is the meaning of my life? How can I be a better person? What can I do about the loneliness I feel? How can I come to know God’s love? How can I know the right path God has in store for me?

 

If you are asking these questions, or questions like them, the Catholic way of life awaits you.

 

If you have questions, or would like further information, please call Sabina Carter at 920-921-0580 or email her at scarter@hffdl.org, or click here to visit Holy Family’s website. Classes start in October.
