Plan to attend: The St Anthony Lenten Series — Catholicism.

Tentative days —Each Wed. after 9:00am mass &Wed. at 7:00 pm.

Presenters: Diane & Jake McCoy, Connie Blom, & Sherrie Geiser.

Each 25 minute video is complimented

with discussion time and prayer. Per-

fect for adult lay ministry individu-

als. RCIA Catechists etc.

Don’t miss this chance to grow

closer to God and delve more

deeply into your faith.

Fr. Robert Barron created this groundbreaking program as a thematic

presentation of what Catholics believe & why, so all adults can come

to a deeper understanding of the Catholic Faith. Not a video lecture,

Church history or scripture study, this engaging and interesting for-

mational program uses the art, architecture, literature, music and all

the treasures of the Catholic tradition to illuminate the timeless teach-

ings of the Church. Ten compelling episodes from the series on DVD.

Filmed in 50 locations throughout 15 countries, the CATHOLICISM

DVDs reveal these truths in a visually-breath taking and compelling

way, with original, high-def. cinematography.

YOU WILL LOVE THIS! DO IT FOR LENT AND GROW!
