Welcome to St. Bernard of Clairvaux's Quest Program!
Quest is the name we’ve given to an ancient process. Within our St. Bernard of Clairvaux community, it's the process of learning about the Catholic faith, experiencing a conversion of heart, and being welcomed into the faith by receiving the sacraments. In Quest, we follow the Rites of the Order of Christian Initiation of Adults (OCIA). Quest is an exciting and dynamic way to assist people on their journey towards Jesus and into our beautiful faith tradition.
Are you interested in the Catholic faith? Do you want to receive the Sacraments? Have you been away from the faith for too long and want to get reacquainted with Jesus Christ and find out exactly what the Church is all about? Are you seeking the Truth and looking for deeper meaning in your life?
Quest is your pathway and your answer for all of the previous questions.
If you are interested in getting involved, please contact Deacon Phil LoCascioto learn more about this program. You can reach him via email at [email protected] or via phone at (480) 661-9843. ALL are welcome to join our weekly sessions and if you are interested in starting your journey toward converting, we will guide you in every step of the process.
During our gatherings, there is time for prayer and reflection and friendly discussion, all focused on a specific teaching of the Church that is presented. We will have various presenters (including Fr. Fred and Fr. Ryan) to lead discussions and many sessions will have a testimonial from one of our parishioners sharing their story of conversion and how the faith influences their lives.
Quest is a year-round process because new people are seeking to join us week after week. When God starts to move in their lives, we are ready to walk with them and assist them along the way. Each new person, just like all of us, is at a different place in their faith journey and each of them has a unique history and has heard God’s voice in some very personal way.
The LORD is good to those who wait for him, to the soul that seeks him. Lamentations 3:25
