"Living the Faith" Series Resumes

Select Thursdays in Hayden Hall at 7:45pm

Sr. Timothy is sorry that her February "Living The Faith" presentation on "Human Sexuality" had to be postponed. She has arranged to include that important subject in her upcoming talks in the coming months. Here is the revised schedule:

March 5: Human Suffering: Essential in Making Us Whole
How to ntegrate bodily, mental, spiritual and seemingly "useless" suffering in daily life? Why is it valuable?

April 2: Sex and Gender Issues and the Identity of the Human Person
How do these issues relate to a life of faith, the dignity of the person, and the future of the human race?

May 7: The Call to Spousal Holiness
What does it mean to have a mutual marital call to holiness? How is this uniquely lived out in a sacramental marriage? What are major obstacles in our time?

June 4: Unconditional Love of Truth: Basis of Real Relationships
How remain faithful to truth in a culture where "truth" is often considered a "right" personally determined according to individual desires and expectations?

Sr. Timothy is a noted writer and theologian who has the unique gift of expressing deep theological principles in ways that are understandable to the "man on the street." Read more about Sister Mary Timothy.
