Wine and Wisdom

We're glad so many young adults attended our winter 2012 Wine and Wisdom kick-off this week with Sr. Miriam! Her discussion on the role and influence of the saints, and encouragment to seek intentional relationship with one another, is truly relevant in our modern world. If you're interested in further exploration into the lives of the saints, Sr. Miriam recommended "Modern Saints," a two volume work (with pictures) written by Ann Ball. For spiritual guidance, especially in prayer, she suggests works by Fr. Jacques Philipe. Thanks for bringing your energy and great questions to make the evening a powerful experience for all.

Please join us next week at Kells - even if you weren't able to make it to the kick-off! - to hear Fr. Boniface Willard, OP speak on "Friendship." The event will formally begin around 7:15, but feel free to arrive at 7 and socialize. We also hope you'll attend mass at Christ Our Hope (located on the corner of Stewart and 2nd) at 6:30 pm. Hope to see you and your friends there!
