Midweek Manna: Don’t Stop Praying

09/01/2026

Join us this September for the Parish Monthly Book Club as we kick off Mere Christianity by C.S. Lewis, a compelling exploration of life’s deepest questions: Is there an objective moral order? What does human nature reveal about God? And if Christianity is true, what does it demand of us?

A former atheist, Lewis makes a lucid and provocative case for the Christian faith and the radical transformation it calls us to embrace. As Anthony Burgess wrote in the New York Times Book Review, “C. S. Lewis is the ideal persuader for the half-convinced, for the good man who would like to be a Christian but finds his intellect getting in the way.”

📖 Book: Mere Christianity by C.S. Lewis
📅 Thursday, Sept. 17, 10-11:30 am
OR
📅 Friday, Sept. 25, 7-8:30 pm
📍 New Life Center, Room 204

Purchase your own copy of the book and join us for a great time of fellowship and discussion!

On Friday, Sept. 11, at 12:15 pm in the chapel, our parish community is invited to gather in prayerful remembrance of the 25th anniversary of the tragic events of Sept. 11, 2001.

As we honor the lives lost, remember the courage of first responders and pray for all those whose lives were forever changed by that day, we turn to Our Blessed Mother and ask for her intercession.

Join us as we pray for peace in our hearts, our nation and throughout the world.

All are welcome.
