We have had a great July with Cafe Catholica and our How to Series! Bible study has resumed. Our last night of the How To Series on healthy living is tonight at 7pm in room 2 on the Woodland Hills campus.
Join us Monday nights at 7 PM in St. Martha’s Main Church for our new bible study series "Saved". We meet in the parlor- the first door on the left side.
Do you feel called to be more active in the church?
We are looking for enthusiastic young adults to help plan and organize events for our group. Events can be focused on spiritual development and growing deeper in faith, service, fellowship, sports, social outings and creating a community of like minded Catholics.

Tuesday, August 27, 2019 at 06:15 PM at St. Cecilia Catholic School in Houston, TX
Join us at our August Executive Speaker Series featuring Christie Peters and Kassie Manning, founders of Every Sacred Sunday, a Mass journal approved by the USCCB to encourage a more intentional Mass experience.

Website: https://everysacredsunday.com/
Ask yourself: How do you prepare for the most important hour of the week? In 2016, Kassie and Christie were craving a resource to help them participate more actively in the Mass. On July 28, 2017 they launched a Kickstarter campaign that exceeded its goal in the first 12 hours. This fall, they'll be launching the 3rd Edition of Every Sacred Sunday.
They're former college roomies at Trinity University, dog-lovers, tea drinkers, and big believers in extraordinary grace. Come hear their story about bringing their idea – and their business – to life!
What you'll learn:
• How Christie and Kassie navigated the challenges of establishing their own business, and the investments they made of time and money to make the book a reality
• How they identified a hole in the market and built business relationships to produce the first edition of the book
• How they balanced full-time jobs in the midst of starting the company
• How they adopted growth mindsets to learn aspects of business and book production – areas in which they had little prior experience
6:15 p.m. | Adoration and Praise & Worship in the chapel
7 p.m. | Event check-in and networking
7:40 p.m. | Opening prayer and remarks
7:45 p.m. | Hear from Christie and Kassie
• This event is free and open to all young adults in any profession or industry.
• Parking is available at the church and the adjacent school.
• Complimentary beer, wine and appetizers.
• Dress is business casual. See y’all there!
