The only thing that counts is faith expressing itself through love." (Gal. 5:6)
Of the many assets we leave our children and grandchildren, our personal spirituality and deep, life-sustaining faith
is our most precious legacy. The growth- potential investment of communicating deeply from our heart and soul
pays dividends for generations. Our vocation as parents and grandparents (and great grandparents) provides endless
opportunities to witness our faithfulness to God and each other regardless of life's circumstances. We invite you to
join us as we pause and reflect on our sacred calling to listen and grow, proclaim and share the Good News within
our families.
This program is open to all those with an interest in spiritual growth.
