Join us on Wednesday, October 17, 2018 at 7:00PM in the hall for the presentation and discussion of “An Evening Recognizing YOUR Path of Holiness” which is based on Rejoice and Be Glad by Pope Francis.
In the second paragraph of his recent Apostolic Exhortation, Pope Frances writes: “My modest goal is to re propose the call to holiness in a practical way for our own time, with all its risks, challenges and opportunities. For the Lord has chosen each one of us ‘to be holy and blameless before him in love’ (Eph1:4)”.
You are welcome if you were with us last month or this is your first evening.
Feel free to read chapters 2 and 3 up to paragraph 80 before our gathering: http://w2.vatican.va/content/francesco/en/apost_exhortations/documents/papafrancescoesor tazione-ap_20180319_gaudete-et-exsultate.pdf
