Blessed Sacrament 

Catholic Church 

IMPACT is a two-year formation program for adults facilitated by the Archdiocese of Dubuque. The program utilizes the Catechism of the Catholic Church, Scripture, spiritual reading, and dynamic presenters to guide spiritual, theological, intellectual and pastoral formation in the Catholic faith in order to help participants live out missionary discipleship in their parish and community. IMPACT is open to any adult who desires a deeper relationship with Christ and a greater understanding of the Catholic faith in order to better serve others through leadership. The next two-year cohort begins in September of 2021 and will meet at St. Mark Church in Iowa Falls.More information is available at www.dbqarch.org/IMPACT. For questions, contact Matt Selby at m.selby@dbqarch.org.
