Introducing FORMED: The Catholic Faith. On demand.
As part of a new Parish initiative, the Parish is implementing a parish subscription to FORMED. FORMED is a premier online service providing over 4,000 Catholic studies, movies, audio dramas, talks, e-books, and even cartoons for our children. FORMED has content from over 60 apostolates (such as Augustine Institute, Ignatius Press, etc.) with material that is professionally produced, engaging, and solid in its catechism. All of this material is available to you as a Pymble Parish participant at no charge.
Our parish will be using this material to support our ministries and provide continuing education within the Parish and to support our sick and homebound.
You have easy access to all of the FORMED material to reinforce your own faith and the faith of your family members.
- Would you like to be more confident in answering teenager questions about the validity of the Gospels? Watch Lectio: The Case for Jesus.
- Do you seek a reliable source of Catholic teaching on current issues? Visit The Augustine Institute Show with Dr Tim Gray published weekly.
- Do you despair at finding good movies that your family can enjoy together for a movie night? Start with Mother Teresa, the story of the selfless saint who brought hope and love to the poorest of the poor.
- Are you hesitant to return to the Sacrament of Reconciliation after a long absence? Watch Forgiven: The Transforming Power of Confession.
Any of these materials may be found by using the search function within FORMED.
You can enjoy FORMED with your computer or tablet or with your TV via the FORMED app using Apple TV or Google Chromecast. You can use your phone and the FORMED app to listen as you commute or do your work.
It is our hope that the FORMED service will support you and enrich, deepen, and inspire your faith.
