Welcome to FORMED.org!

Formed.org has been purchased by our parish for you, as a parishioner, to enjoy a multitude of media, at no cost to you!

Think of it like ‘Netflix for Catholics’ which includes over 4000 movies, documentaries, books, audiobooks, podcasts, study materials, and so much more! Now you can experience all the truth, beauty, and meaning of the Catholic faith on your computer, tablet, or smartphone whenever and wherever you want!

FORMED enables personal study, parish-based small groups, family discussion, and outreach to loved ones who no longer practice their Faith.

Our parish will be using it in youth ministry, children’s catechesis, sacramental preparation, marriage enrichment, adult faith formation, RCIA and more.

How can FORMED help me invite my loved ones back to the Church?

Most Catholics have never heard a Lighthouse Talk, read a Catholic book or watched a Catholic video on their own time. Now you can share the Faith in an easy and effective way. 

Simply ask someone a simple question, ‘If I share with you something that I think you will find interesting would you watch it and give me your feedback?”

How can I listen/watch without Wi-Fi?

Offline playback is available for all FORMED users with the App! 

Download your favorite videos, books, and talks on all your mobile devices for your commute or plane ride.

How do I download the FORMED App on my phone?

To access FORMED using the app, make sure you are signed up for FORMED first through your browser. 

Then, go to the appropriate App Store (iTunes or Google Play) for your device, download the FORMED app created by the Augustine Institute, and Sign In.

How can I stream FORMED.org on smart phone or smart TV?

FORMED can be streamed on your TV through a Smart TV, Apple TV, and Roku device. 

If you have a Smart TV, Roku is usually pre-loaded onto it, in which you can then download the FORMED app.

Without any special devices, most smartphones have the capability to “screen mirror”, “screen cast” or “smart view” to a smart television via Bluetooth. Go to your phone setting to turn it on, select to your Bluetooth device and connect. You must change the input setting on your tv first to view instructions and connect.

If your TV or phone does not have this capability, just connect your laptop to your TV via an HDMI cable and change your TV input setting to reflect the new HDMI input setting. https://watch.formed.org/help/articles/how-do-i-watch-on-my-smart-tv
