2023 Small Faith Sharing Groups
Are You Being Called to a Deeper Relationship with God?
You are invited to join fellow parishioners from 6 to 7:15 p.m. on the 2nd and 4th Thursdays of the month in St. Patrick Church to experience Centering Prayer, a method that opens us up to the presence and action of the Holy Spirit within us. Centering Prayer is a discipline that fosters a deeper relationship with God. Each session includes 20 minutes of silent prayer. We also read aloud from "The Cloud of Unknowing" -- a Catholic classic on contemplative prayer -- and discuss it.

Jesus: The Way, the Truth and the Life
[Daytime and evening groups begin after Ash Wednesday]
This video-based study was filmed on location in the Holy Land. It offers a 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 Jesus Christ will inspire and empower you to center your entire life on Jesus as you come to know and love him in a more intimate way.
