Fr. O'Reilly: Three Stages of Spiritual Life
Have you ever wanted to grow in the spiritual life but did not have a model to base this on? If so, then please join Fr. O’Reilly as he discusses the three stages of the spiritual life on September 20th, 27th, and October 4th from 6:30-7:30 P.M. The three stages focus on different levels of growth in the spiritual life: Purgative (penance and detachment from mortal sin), Illuminative (living a life of virtue), and Unitive (living in perfect charity). These talks will draw from the writings of the late Fr. Adolphe Tanqueray. Hope to see you there!

Wednesday Women's Bible Study: Jesus the Way the Truth and the Life
Women, Please join us in our new scripture study starting on Wednesday, September 8th from 9-11am in person. We will be reading the 10-week study called Jesus, The Way, The Truth and The Life by Marcellino D'Ambrosio (Dr. Italy). Here is some information about the study: Jesus is more than a historical or theological figure. He is our Savior, our Redeemer, our Lord, and our God. While many of us already know a lot about him, how well can we say we really know him? Filmed on location in the Holy Land, Jesus: The Way, the Truth, and the Life is a new and fresh look at Jesus—who he is, what he is really like, what he taught, and what he did for our salvation. This encounter with Christ will inspire and empower you to center your entire life on him as you come to know and love him in an ever-deeper and more intimate way. This 10-week study begins on September 8th and you will need a workbook and book. The study set can be purchased here for $29.95. If you need help buying the books, there are funds available, please let me know. Buying the study set will allow you access to the videos for one year. Please let Amanda Bibb know that you will be joining us by emailing her at: amandabibb84@gmail.com or replying to this email.
