Summer School of Faith Continues to Draw Large Crowds

St. Mary’s Adult Education Committee continues to host weekly Tuesday night sessions beginning at 7 p.m. on highlights of the Catholic Catechism.  This Tuesday, July 16th, the topic is “Grace & the Sacraments and the Spiritual Life.”  Next Tuesday, July 23rd, the topic is “Living a Moral Life & Contemporary Moral Issues—Marriage, Divorce, Birth Control, Homosexuality.”

Over 80 Catholics and non-Catholics alike attend these lively talks with Q and A, followed by informal fellowship with wine & cheese. 

The great heritage of the Catholic Church continues to draw seekers from all backgrounds who meet to learn, discuss and ponder eternal truth this summer.
