"Why Catholic" is a St. Bonaventure Adult Faith Formation Ministry led by Deacon Nestor Cardenas. Mission Territory is just outside your door. Learn to evangelize the way Jesus did.

This is a ministry for the following situations:

• For those who have no denomination, and have an interest in becoming Catholic.

• For those who are baptized in another denomination, and have an interest in becoming Catholic.

• For those who are Catholic and have not received Holy Communion and/or Confirmation.

• It can be a refresher course for those Catholics who wish to know more about their faith.

It is an eight-month program beginning the second Tuesday of September, from 7:30 until 9:00 P.M., and will continue until three weeks after Easter.

​

During the Vigil of Easter, the participants will receive all the Sacraments that they are lacking. Lecture and open discussions are part of the program.
