Are you interested in becoming a Catholic?

If you or someone you know is interested in learning more about the Catholic Faith, we invite you to contact the parish office.  This fall we will have a program (RCIA, Rite of Christian Initiation of Adults) for the purpose of sharing what the Catholic Church teaches and to support those discerning this decision.  The program has an initial inquiry period and then progresses through many important topics of faith, shared, discussed and experienced in meaningful ways.  Everyone’s faith journey is unique and special, and God’s love is powerful and exciting, bringing new life to whomever is open to receive it.  More info:  519-364-1973

Discussion Questions:

• Children are such a blessing.  However with their endless needs and questions it does take a lot of energy and patience at times.  What does this passage teach us?
• Do you think loving family is in conflict with loving Jesus?  Why or Why Not?
• What does ‘finding your life” look like to you?  How does it measure up to what Jesus is asking of you?
