Women Growing in Faith is a ministry at Holy Redeemer Catholic Parish created and developed by women for women. Our vision is to provide adult women from all stages and vocations of life the opportunity to grow with correct teachings, insight, and material about the Catholic Church. Our hope is that Women Growing in Faith will be an easy way for women to connect (or reconnect) with the beauty of our Catholic faith and with our beautiful community of Catholic women. We aim to provide an easily accessible venue to inform and educate participants with resources and information to inspire, motivate, encourage and support them in their personal faith journey.

Join our upcoming program!

“Write Your Own Witness Story”

Mark MacKenzie

Welcome, Mark!

In August, Women Growing in Faith will feature Mark MakKenzie, our Columbia River Catholic Director of Evangelization. herd. We are very excited to welcome Mark who will be presenting on “Writing Your Own Witness Story”.

As the Director of Evangelization, Mark works with Father Nathe to make sure the sacramental and religious education needs of the parish are being met. He leads the Evangelization Team for the three Columbia River Catholic parish campuses (Holy Redeemeer, St. Thomas Aquinas and Our Lady Star of the Sea). He guides the staff to plan and deliver programs for parishioners of all ages. You will see Mark leading OCIA, Fraternus (middle and high school), Marriage Prep, and Adult Education. 

Mark enjoys spending time with my wife Andrea and family. He is an engineer by training so it comes naturally to him to come up with and implement solutions to problems in the Church and at home. 

We look forward to welcoming Mark for our August Women Growing in Faith!
