Saint Augustine Faith Formation Program

Adult Ongoing Faith Formation 2026-2027

Dear Parents,


Welcome back to a new year of Adult Ongoing Faith Formation! We are so excited to journey with you again for the 2026-2027 program year.


Building on the wonderful conversations and community we shared last year, we are thrilled to invite you to the second year of the Alpha Film Series. Whether you found deep insights, made new friends, or are still processing the big questions of life and faith, this year promises to dive even deeper into what it means to live out our faith today.

Alpha remains a space where no question is out of bounds, and taking this time to enrich your own spiritual life is one of the greatest gifts you can give your family.


Blessings,


Rita Liu

Leadership Opportunity: Become a Table Host!


Because you have already experienced year one, returning parents are invited to serve as Table Hosts this year. If you would like to help welcome others and facilitate small group conversation, we would love to have you.

Full training will be provided at our upcoming Table Host Orientation on Wednesday, September 30, 2026, from 6:30 PM to 7:30 PM in the Saint Augustine Parish Hall. Please contact Rita Liu at 650-307-8296 if you are interested in stepping into this role.


Hospitality & Child Supervision

●     Complimentary Meals: Enjoy a hot dinner during Thursday sessions or a delicious breakfast on Saturday mornings.

●     Student Supervision: Peace of mind is included! Your children will be fully supervised elsewhere at the church while you relax and enjoy the Alpha Film Series.
