Real Love, Real Life!

Dear Parents,

 

We had a beautiful Outcry night last Sunday and learned about the Beatitudes & how they are the secret to happiness!!! The Beatitudes tell us how to live & how we will be blessed with joy that only God can give us...the spiritual life is very paradoxical to what the world tells us but by living in the truth we are set free to live in God's love & bring it to a wounded world...https://www.loyolapress.com/our-catholic-faith/scripture-and-tradition/catholic-basics/catholic-beliefs-and-practices/the-beatitudes

 

We are so thankful to God that Outcry is at an all time high & we will we end up with almost 200 students and almost 40 volunteers including peer leaders!!!  However, we are in great need of 2 more volunteers to help with small groups. If you are EIM certified and can help please email Joelle ASAP joelle.maryn@emmausparish.org

 

Also, here are some important date reminders:

 

There is no class this Sunday October 1, however we hope to see you at Fall Fest 12Noon - 4:00 PM. http://www.emmausparish.org/fallfest  If your child can help with face painting please have them come between 12-4 for a 1 hour slot & just tell Joelle they are there to help.

 

 

If you need a copy of our schedule, Confirmation questions, etc. please first check our website: http://www.emmausparish.org/outcry

 

 

Today I began teaching the adult class - Fearless - A Catholic Woman's Guide to Spiritual Warfare...we do have child care available and other parents in the class...I hope you can join us...it is on Thursdays 9:30 - 11:00 AM in Multi-B/C in the PLC & is a very powerful class based on scripture, truth & healing.

 

I also hope you can make it to our night of reflection on Theology of the Body for Adults (both men & women) "The Healing Power of Love; discover the truth of your sexuality & for what you are created."  This night of reflection will help you interact more meaningfully with your child about what the church teaches on our sexuality & the beauty of it - not as distorted by the world.

It's Thursday, October 19, 7:00 - 9:00 PM in the youth space.
