Catholic come home FAq's

There are many reasons why Catholics may no longer be participating actively in their faith. There are equally many reason for Catholics to consider "coming home." Here at St. George Parish we sepport and encourage you in your desire to explore what it might mean in your life to be more active in practicing your Catholic faith.

Below are a few of the questions we are most  frequently asked by those who are thinking about returning to the Church.

I am thinking of returning to the Catholic Church. Do I have to go through some kind of program in order to this?

No, if your are a Catholic who has been baptized and received First Holy Communion you do not need to go thorugh a program. However, St. George does offer a program, Welcome Back, which provides an opportunity for people to talk about their issues with the Church, to express their concerns, and to learn more about the Church. Welcome Back is stafeed by a wonderful team of people who are trained to listen and eager to help.

If I return to the Church will I need to go to confession? Or can I just come to Mass?

You are always welocme to Mass! There are no prerequisites or conditions for attending Mass
