faith formation
our vision
Create a parish of missionary disciples whose personal relationship with Jesus Christ inspires others into a life-changing relationship with Him.
from mourning to joy
bereavement program
Our Christian faith is the very key to healing after the death of a loved one and it is vital to living a life filled with promise, peace, and joy. St. Lawrence O’Toole’s Bereavement Ministry meets weekly to help you work through your loss with group support and the GriefShare program. Practical strategies will help you move through the grief process with the goal of rebuilding your life while experiencing significant healing and growth in faith.

acts of the apostles
scripture study
Acts of the Apostles is the story of how a few Christians, empowered by the Holy Spirit, were chosen to spread Christ to the whole world. Acts spans a period of almost 30 years following the Resurrection of Jesus, when the early Christians ”turned the world upside down” while spreading the Good News. Written by St. Luke, Acts provides a glimpse of the amazing power and guidance of the Holy Spirit!

33 days to eucharistic glory
a spiritual pilgrimage
At critical times throughout Salvation History, God’s people have been invited to consecrate themselves. We are at one of those critical times. 33 Days to Eucharistic Glory is the first ever Eucharistic Consecration. The program includes a book with daily reflections, virtues to adopt, extraordinary prayers, and inspiring stories to help us experience Jesus in the Eucharist like never before.
Men's Ministry
Men’s Ministry at St. Lawrence is a weekly meeting of Catholic and Christian men in the parish and neighborhood on Saturday mornings from 7 am to 8:30 am in the Large Conference Room (2nd floor) of the Parish Center. It is a great way to start your Saturday off on the right foot and still have the rest of the day for your family.
Our motto or mission statement at Men’s Ministry is, “As iron sharpens iron, one man sharpens another” (Proverbs 27:17). It offers an opportunity for brotherly camaraderie and to help sharpen each other to become what God has called us to be: the spiritual leaders of our families and our domestic church.
We start with bagels and coffee and an opening prayer. Then, we have a short presentation (20-30 minutes) that may include a video or two of an interesting Catholic-themed topic. This is followed by some great table discussion, and we end with prayer intentions and a closing prayer. It’s a wonderful way to recharge your Catholic faith and help you deal with the day-to-day distractions and pressures of an increasingly secular and godless society.
“If you are not drawing your life from Jesus, it means you are trying to draw it from some other source. I’ll guarantee you that it’s not working.” From Beautiful Outlaw by John Eldredge.
Give us a try. And similar to Vegas, “What is said in Men’s Ministry, stays in Men’s Ministry!”

Discipleship
At St. Lawrence O’Toole and Sacred Heart Churches, we work to stay focused on this vision. We understand that if we keep our eyes on Jesus, strive to grow closer to Him personally, and allow Him to lead our lives, we will be truly happy. We will also gain the confidence to influence the people around us, be witnesses to Jesus’ Truth and love, and help others encounter the beauty and freedom that comes from following Christ.
Jesus formed the Church because He wants us to worship, learn, and serve in the community. We cannot grow in holiness alone; we need each other. God reveals Himself to each of us in individual ways and we come to know God more fully by seeing how He relates to others too. Our Discipleship Small Groups were formed to help our parishioners grow to be full missionary disciples.

Faith Formation Reflections
Heaven’s Fire
As an artist, I am always reflecting on the mysteries of our faith, striving to comprehend the divine through analogies and pictures. So, as I reflect on the Holy Spirit and the tongues of fire that bestowed the Sacrament of Confirmation on the first disciples at Pentecost, I think of
Saint You
If you ask a person if they want to go to heaven, they will most likely say, “Yes.” Ask the same person if he or she wants to be a saint, and the answer will probably be, “Oh, I could never be a saint!” What is curious about those responses
Choose Agape
This weekend, the readings are meant to tutor us on love –God’s definition of love, not our limited and potentially ambiguous English meaning. We use the word loosely: we love our spouses, children, dog, ice cream, Netflix series…. The loose definition can distort our understanding that God IS love and
Will or Will Not?
Unlike essay-writing high school students who fill paragraphs with needless words to meet teacher requirements, every word of Scripture is there for a reason. The Holy Spirit has inspired every author of the Bible and whether they are Historical, Prophetic, or Wisdom books or Gospels or Epistles, each and every
