Landings

Welcoming Returning and Inactive Catholics

A Ministry of the Paulist Fathers

• Were you raised Catholic but do not come or seldom come to Church anymore?
• Are you a Catholic who now feels separated from the Church?
• Would you like to know more about the Catholic Church as it is today?
• Would you like to feel at home in the Catholic Church again?

--"I think the thing that stands out most with me was the sense of community. I definitely felt the presence of God in each session and through the community, I knew that God had called me back."   --Pauline, Landings Participant

If you are a Catholic considering a return to the church, know we are thinking about you. We invite you to be an active part of us again.

We offer you a safe place, a “Landings” place to be listened to, a place for understanding and healing, and a place to ask questions and explore your faith further. Topics include: Images of God, Jesus, The Church, the Sacraments including Eucharist and Reconciliation, Catholic life and more. Most of all, Landings is a place to share your story and to be welcomed without judgement or expectations. 

During the eight week Landings program, a group of active Catholics, some of whom are “returnees” themselves, join with returning Catholics to share and explore their faith together.

For more information please contact Ed Orazen at (614) 313-7801 or e-mail landings@buckeyecatholic.com.

--"I remember the warmth and openness of the team members, willing to discuss any question or concern humbly and nonjudgmentally. I was amazed and fascinated to hear other people's struggles, so different and yet so similar in essence to mine, everyone looking for something to calm that thirst for God."  -- Julia, Landings Participant
