The Fruit of our Lenten Sacrifice

Our sacrifices lead us to the Resurrection. Lent can feel like a long time. Sometimes we’d like to skip right to Easter! But just like studying for a test, practicing a sport or saving money, we often must do difficult tasks, make sacrifices and overcome obstacles to reach a worthy goal. Read more.

What's on the Horizon

What is “right” and “wrong”? Is there a right and wrong for everyone, all the time?

These are difficult questions to discuss in our culture. In Who Am I To Judge? with

Dr. Edward Sri, we’ll explore morality and find that it’s not merely a set of guiding

principles for theoretical situations—it is an entire way of life.

Join us to watch the series and discover how to live and talk about morality.

Dates: Tuesdays from April 11 to May 30

Time: 7:00-8:00 PM

Location: School Rm 104 (April 11th); Marian Rm, Lower Level Rectory (All Other Sessions)

Contact: Tom and Debby at theciceros@comcast.net
