Do you struggle with how to talk about the birds & the bees with your children? Do you wonder at what age these conversations should begin? Parenting has been a challenge in every age, but especially now with debates raging over gender identity, sexual orientation, and sexual freedom, we know that many parents just aren’t sure where to begin or how to address these sensitive (but extremely important) topics.

Welcome to Theology of the Body for Parents! Over the course of four Wednesday nights, we would like to break open this beautiful teaching from Pope St. John Paul II. Come and learn why God made us male and female, and how our sexuality is woven into our very salvation. Even if you’ve grown up in the Catholic Church, you might not have ever heard this life-giving and life-affirming teaching on human sexuality. Come and feel better equipped to have tough conversations with your kids of all ages. Feel confident in answering their questions and in helping them discern God’s plan for their lives.

All are welcome, though our target audience is parents of children of all ages. Whether your kids are babies, in high school, or somewhere in between, please join us.

All faith backgrounds are invited: Catholics & non-Catholics, as well as general seekers and searchers. No religious background is necessary.

During Masses through September we will be having a Second Collection for Father Louis Merosne and his Mission to the Beloved in Anse-à-Veau Haiti. On August 14th Haiti was struck by a 7.2 Earthquake killing many and causing widespread destruction. Father Louis mission and parishioners were severely effected and his parish, Cathédrale Sainte Anne was damaged beyond repair.

We are now endeavoring to build a community center to house all our ministries and religious education. We want to continue to be that shining light on the hill, inviting and ministering to everyone in our community. Below you can see a brief video that shows where we have been and where we are going as a Parish. If you would make a pledge we would be eternally grateful. The parish has raised $2,506,260 towards our $3.2 million goal. You can pledge online at the link below the video:
