St. Teresa of Avila Catholic Student Center

GIFT

G.I.F.T. (Growing In Faith Together) is our comprehensive approach to faith formation which empowers parents to assist their children in developing a personal relationship with Jesus Christ, while strengthening their own relationship with Jesus through prayer, study and action.

G.I.F.T. meets once a month with families to continue the journey that begins at baptism. The program is designed to form, inform and transform individuals and families to live as disciples at home and in the world.

Gift Sessions are held in the Urschel Building on the campus of Valparaiso University. All sessions begin at 9:30am.
