Adult Faith Enrichment Series: The Spirituality of Aging

Adult Faith Enrichment Series: The Spirituality of Aging

In a culture that tries to defy the aging process, how do we embrace the fears as well as the spiritual opportunities of growing older?

Join Laurie Jacob, certified spiritual director, for a 3 week series exploring the spirituality of aging. Gathering in a small group faith sharing format, we will explore questions surrounding the challenges and opportunities of aging with a sense of hope and freedom to become one’s truest self.

This group will gather on Friday mornings from 9:30-10:30am at St. Paul Rectory on February 7, 14, and 21

Community Read and Lecture Series – “Let Us Dream: The Path to a Better Future” by Pope Francis

Community Read and Lecture Series – “Let Us Dream: The Path to a Better Future” by Pope Francis

This Lent, as we prepare to begin our synodal journey, we will dive deeply into Pope Francis’ recent book, Let Us Dream: The Path to a Better Future, written during the pandemic in collaboration with his biographer Austin Ivereigh. In a relaxed and conversational tone, Francis poignantly captures the ills of today’s world and suggests practical solutions for overcoming them, both personally and systemically.

Those wishing to understand Pope Francis’ emphasis on synodality will find many revelations here – we encourage everyone to read this wonderful book!
