We are a group of Catholic Home Educators based in the Fort Wayne area striving to fulfill our duty to teach our children in the faith. As St. Pope John Paul II expressed in his Letter to Families, (2 February 1994 ) “Parents are the first and most important educators of their own children, and they also possess a fundamental competence in this area: they are educators because they are parents.” Our members span throughout Fort Wayne.
Throughout the year we organize events, activities, and social gatherings where Catholic Homeschool families can meet in support of one another. Some example activities include: All Saints Day party, St. Valentine’s Day party, Homeschool Gatherings, First Friday Masses, and Potlucks.
The Knights of Columbus is a group open to all practicing (receiving the sacraments) Catholic men of the parish, 18 years of age or older. Founded by Fr. Michael J. McGivney, a young parish priest now on the path to sainthood, the Knights of Columbus has helped strengthen men, their families, their parishes, and their communities since 1882. Today, there are more than 1.9 million members of the K of C doing good works across the world. The Knights of Columbus stands as the strong right arm of the Church, and challenges members to grow in their faith through programs, fraternity, and service to the Catholic Church, its priests, and their parish community.

Sharing words to create truth and beauty that reflect human experiences and bring glory to God can be as complex as writing a novel or as short and sweet as sending a note of encouragement to a friend. No matter your style or method, writing is a charism from God, and if it’s one of yours, or even if it’s a strong desire you wish to explore, we want you to join us in a Writers’ Group at St. Vincent’s on the third Thursday of the month. Communication through the written word presents endless possibilities for discovering meaning, purpose, and joy in our relationship with God and the Church. Through a safe and loving environment of friendship and trust, we can teach and learn from each other how best to accomplish our mission as intentional disciples.
