Dive deep into your faith with Practical Catholicism
The saints open a window for our minds and hearts to hear God. The Practical Catholicism Ministry invites and challenges you to deepen your faith and enrich your life by diving into the writings of saints and harmonizing their lessons with Holy Scripture and the Catechism. Join us in the St. Peter Catholic School lecture hall from 8:30-10:30am on the 2nd and 4th Saturdays of each month. We’ll gather to jointly explore how we can apply these lessons and live more like saints. Coffee and refreshments will be provided to energize our studies! For more information, contact Wade Feller (719-332-0414). |
