CALL Seminar D Recap

What a great way to close out the CALL seminar year!

Students participated in their final formation sessions for the year:
Year 1: Marriage: Myths and the Beautiful Realities
Year 2: Truth in a Disordered World
Year 3: Gender Ideology and the True Art of Accompaniment

Meanwhile, parents and guests had the opportunity to attend a special end-of-life seminar with Nik Nikas, exploring the dignity of the human person and faithful responses to today’s ethical challenges.

We INVITE YOU! Early Bird ENDS Feb 15th! TOMORROW!

Honorary Chairpersons Mark and Barb Lishko invite you to our Witnesses to Hope Celebration and Fundraiser!

SET APART: Embracing your Role in the Final Battle over Marriage and Family

“This timely topic is for all of us. We want to personally invite you...
You know we had our own challenges but Theology of the Body teaching helped us to be victorious.” - Mark Lishko

God is not the only one who has a plan for your family... Satan does too.

What is the Evil One’s strategy to effectively attack the very foundation of society, and what should be our counter-strategy — with Christ — in this battle of spiritual and cosmic proportion?

Join us on Saturday, March 14th!
