CATHOLICISM - EPISODE 8 "A VAST COMPANY OF WITNESSES: THE COMMUNION OF SAINTS"
The story of the Church is told in the examples of those men and women who dedicated their lives to knowing and serving Jesus Christ. The Catholic Faith is made visible in real human lives. Father Barron gives consideration to some of the Church’s greatest heroes, and demonstrates how their extraordinary examples display both the passion and creative potential of the Catholic Church. Highlighting Katharine Drexel, Therese of Lisieux, Edith Stein, and Mother Teresa of Calcutta, Father Barron tells the story of the Church as a vast company of witness who are called by Christ to be a Communion of Saints. Father Artur, will present this exciting course on Sunday afternoon from 3 PM to 4:30PM at Saint Francis of Assisi Church, 1048 W. Ventura Street. Everyone is Welcome to attend ! Thank you Fr. Artur for providing this awesome series !

Are you thinking about becoming a Catholic?
Or, are you a baptized Catholic seeking toreceive the Sacraments of Reconciliation, Holy Eucharist, or Confirmation? Or maybe you simply would like to better understand your faith? If you have questions about the Catholic faith, now would be a great time to seek some answers to your questions. What do Catholics believe about Jesus Christ? The Bible? Prayer? The Sacraments? Saints? If you are an adult (18 or older) with questions about Catholic Church teachings, or have been wondering how you might become a Catholic,
Please call the pastoral center at 524-1306 during office hours and leave a message for RCIA. Classes are starting soon!
