Adult Faith

Emmanuel is a community of faith that encourages its members to encounter Christ daily, to grow in their Catholic faith, and to be skilled and empowered as missionary disciples. The Adult Faith Team create and provide access to discipleship resources and experiences which support our members growth in Catholic faith and deepen their experience of life in the Spirit, while remembering that each person takes responsibility for their own growth through formation suited to their readiness, needs and stage of life.

Some of the programs, courses and video series we offer in Emmanuel include Alpha, RCIA, the Holy Spirit, prayer, spiritual gifts and more, together supporting our members in ‘growing as contagious followers of Jesus’.
