Just Faith will sponsor an 8 week program, New Wineskins. New Wineskins is one of many Just Matters modules, focusing on our desire to "do more" with our lives, to "be more" -to be known and challenged at deeper levels or in different ways than we experience in our parish or family; to pray together and reflect on our lives in light of Scripture and our Catholic tradition; to struggle and rejoice at life's ups and downs with other committed Christians.

Just Matters is a new and expanding series of formation materials from JustFaith Ministries. The emphasis is on social ministry, with special emphasis on Catholic social teaching, culminating in a call to engaged action.

New Wineskins' participants will get to discern if they feel called to commit to our Just Faith mission based community. Through readings and Scripture reflection, dialogue, videos, guest speakers, as well as community socializing, this module offers both the inspiration and the process for responding to that deep longing to be more and to do more in our lives.

The course will be held every Monday evening from 7:00 p.m. - 9:00 p.m. in the Monsignor Gauthreaux Center Library. The class will begin on Monday, March 5, and will continue through Monday, April 23. The program will be facilitated by Marilyn Degrasse, with support from Lynne and Deacon Oscar Foster.

If interested in joining, please contact the church office.

When times get tough and things are off track, it is easy to allow disappointment to lead you to abandon your aspirations for living a life in balance. However, you can learn to cope with setbacks and regret in a way that pushes you toward succes instead of dragging you down? A NEW BEGINNING will help you explore 10 key scriptural principles to help you stand strong in your commitment to live the life God is calling you to live- a life of obedience, balance and victory!
