August 17-“Coming to Christ—Resting in His Love”

The 3rd part of the series by Susan Conroy. Come have your spirits lifted in your God and your Catholic Faith. It is

a very consoling and uplifting series.

Come as you can for coffee and for enrichment.

Kiosk News!

Internationally acclaimed speaker and

author Chris Stefanick speaks about the

importance of living a life of authenticity

with a courageous commitment to love.

He walks us through seven habits that we can use as

modern-day apostles to effectively spread the good news

to Jesus Christ. Following these lessons will help us to

fulfill our calling to be fearlessly, joyfully Catholic, with a

faith that is attractive, life-giving, and truly contagious.

This Weeks Stewardship Thought:

When you hear Jesus calling, do you

responded immediately and trust that He

knows what He’s doing? If so, you are walking on water!

When we say “yes” to Jesus, we feel the power of his

presence in our lives. We can feel the freedom it gives

us! Listen how Jesus is calling you to live the

extraordinary life He has in mind for you.

In the plan of your wisdom she who bore

May we follow her example in reflecting your holiness

and join in her hymn of endless love and praise. We ask

this through Christ our Lord.

Amen.
