Friday, March 1, 2019, 7:30 PMWhy God? Why Jesus? Why the Catholic Church? with Dr. John-Mark Miravalle on Friday, March 1 at 7:30PM
Why God? Why Jesus? Why the Catholic Church? When you live in a society filled with non-believers, non-Christians and non-Catholics, these are the questions that come up time and again. How do we know there is a God? If there is a God, has He revealed Himself in Jesus Christ? And if Jesus really is Lord, do we need a faith-community in order to relate to Him? Which one? Join us for a lively discussion and share your concerns and questions with us.
After the presentation, stay for FAT FRIDAY, a pre-Lenten celebration of our faith with wine, dessert and more discussion and fellowship.
