BUILD THE FAITH TEEN AND COMMUNITY WORKSHOPS

Thanks to the wonderful collaboration of parishes, religious education programs, Catholic Schools, and Girl Scouts troops, Build the Faith is able to bring our founder Christina’s message of faith and hope to youth and the Catholic community through Rosary Workshops. In these workshops, aside from hearing Christina’s inspirational story, attendees learn the importance of the rosary and how to pray it. They are also given the opportunity to do community service by making a rosary, introducing our mission and Christina’s message to their fellow parishioners and/or school communities, and helping us to sell our rosaries in order to raise funds to contribute to the mission of Build the Faith. Contact us if you want to bring our Workshops to your Catholic community.
