The Discovering Christ encounter series will be offered each Fall for those seeking answers to life's big questions of meaning, purpose, and faith regardless of religious background. Discovering Christ is for anyone who is curious. Enjoy a free quality dinner and listen to a thought-provoking talk that is designed to explore the meaning and purpose of your life. After the talk, you can share your thoughts in a small group (and talk as much or as little as your wish). It's all done in a warm, friendly, and judgement-free environment.

Following Christ

Are you wanting to grow in your relationship with the Lord Jesus? Are you looking for support and guidance in applying some of the basic disciplines and truths that have been practiced by Christians from the time of the early Church?


Following Christ is for anyone who is looking to grow in Catholic discipleship! Come and listen to a thought-provoking talk from the Christ-life presenters that is designed to help you grow in your prayer life, sacramental living, hearing God in Scripture, forgiving one another, overcoming sin, and many other areas of the faith. After the video presentation, you can share your thoughts in a prayerful and supportive small group, and receive encouragement to live what you learned during the week. 


Continental breakfast/light fare and coffee provided.

Sharing Christ

Do you have the desire to share your faith with others but lack the confidence? Are you looking for support and guidance in applying some practical tips and methods to evangelize?


Sharing Christ is a seven-week course to train Catholics to share Jesus with others and invite them to become active members of the Church. The course focuses on personal or friendship evangelization, and how we share our relationship with Jesus with people in our day-to-day encounters. We will develop methods and actions to do this. But more than that, the goal is to develop an attitude of heart that moves us to be open to share the Good News we have experienced anytime and anywhere.
