Enter The Church
Becoming Catholic
Becoming Catholic might just be the biggest decision one can make in their entire lives. We Catholics trace our roots back two-thousand years to when Jesus founded His Church on Peter the Apostle (Mt 16). This line of authority continues on to this very day through to our current Pope, Bishops and Priests. To put that into perspective, the Catholic Church is older than Scripture itself.
If you are looking to enter into the Catholic Church here at St. Germaine, we pray you allow us to accompany you on this incredible walk of discovery.
The beginning of your official entry into the Church comes from proper Faith Formation. For children this means attending our Religious Education Program. For adults, attending the Order of Christian Initiation for Adults. Both of these programs are offered September through Easter of every year. More information about these programs can be found by visiting 'Religious Education' on this website.
At St. Germaine you will never be alone. Allow us to walk beside you as we journey in unity with the faithful to God.
Life at St. Germaine
St. Germaine Catholic Church in Prescott Valley has a simple mission statement: 'Building, Blessing, Becoming the Body of Christ.' We are founded on this short and simple belief of always looking to build new relationships, to bless, and to take part as the Body of Christ here on Earth.
We celebrate the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass every day and offer confession six days per week; more than most parishes in Northern Arizona. We also offer perpetual adoration of the Blessed Sacrament for all parishioners and have been doing so for over twenty years.
We don't stop there. St. Germaine is home to a wealth of various ministries from Bible Studies, Young Adult groups, mens and womens groups and our wonderful Hispanic ministries. More information about these groups can be found by visiting 'Ministries' on this website.
