About the Program

What We Believe: The Beauty of the Catholic Faith is a ten-session study that reveals the truth and beauty of the Catholic Faith.

This study explores what the Catholic Church teaches and what it truly means to be Catholic. Founded by Christ, the Church is where we encounter God through his Word, the sacraments, and the communion of saints. The Church proclaims the fullness of the Faith and calls all people to believe in the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit, the source of life and salvation.

Whether you have been Catholic your entire life or are just beginning to explore the Faith, this study will help you understand and appreciate the richness of the Catholic Church.
