 Mary of Magdala Social and Dinner

An Oktoberfest Celebration

Mark your Calendar for October 16

Save the date to attend this hosted dinner after Mass on October 16. It will feature brats & condiments, potato salad & dessert, hosted and prepared by our Hospitality Ministry.

You only need to bring your own beer or other beverage.

Join us in this festive opportunity to mix, mingle & together celebrate the arrival of Fall!

Mary of Magdala, ECC participated last year in a LuMin sponsored program. This program addresses both food and housing insecurity. These are CSU students usually in their senior year who were either in a toxic living situation or were not able to afford housing to finish their degree.

We participated in the program by providing dinner along with other faith communities once a week. This semester we will provide dinners for 20 on Thursdays with volunteers needed beginning September 15. This is a coordinated event with multiple people helping on each Thursday.   

Please email Lisa Jones at lpjones99@yahoo.com for questions or to volunteer. 

Thank you in advance for any assistance you can provide!

The Enneagram is a Spiritual tool that helps facilitate self-knowledge. It is an ancient personality typing system that helps people better understand who they are and what makes them respond or act in the particular ways that they do. 

The Workbooks are $20 each but the printed version may be sold out. Digital copies are available, but check for either via this LINK. St. Paul's does have 10 workbooks available for purchase. Please reach out via St. Paul's office directly at this email for information.

You will also need to purchase access to the online videos for a fee of $10 which provides 6-months for you to watch and re-watch these videos. You will find the link to purchase the videos by following this same link and hovering over the 'Visit Vimeo.com…' link in the #2 of 'Here’s How this Works.'
