Eastern Christian Formation

"With us, everything should be secondary compared to our concern with children and their upbringing in the instruction and teaching of the Lord."

- Saint John Chrysostom

The purpose of ECF is to present the whole Christian doctrine as a unified message. The message imposes demands, brings consequences, and establishes an ultimate goal: union with God.

The Eastern Christian Formation program helps young people develop a readiness to accept and to make their own the lifestyle and tradition of the community of believers.

ECF at St. Ann’s uses the God With Us catechetical series, which can be found by clicking here.

ECF occurs most Sundays from 9:20-10:20 AM.
