As part of our ‘Year of Faith’ we will be running the CATHOLICISM programme of 10 sessions, on Tuesday evenings starting on the 2nd of October. Each session consists of a DVD presentation with subsequent discussion. The DVD programme is presented by the American priest Fr Robert Barron. These are some comments already made about this programme:-
· "This is the most important media project in the history of the Catholic Church in America. A stimulating and compelling exploration of the spiritual, moral, and intellectual riches of the Catholic world. "
· "CATHOLICISM will be of great interest to viewers who want a better understanding of the impact and meaning this faith has throughout the world."
· "One of Fr. Barron's great gifts is to be able to help the learner see how our own experience of human life fits into what God has graciously revealed to us through his Body, the Church."
· "In tying together art and culture, history and literature, beauty and truth, which is the wisdom - the timeless genius that CATHOLICISM is all about - he does it magnificently. And this is just what we need in the Catholic Church today.” - Archbishop Timothy M. Dolan, Archdiocese of New York
· "CATHOLICISM is filled with beauty, and Fr. Barron presents the enduring truths in such a clear and compelling way. CATHOLICISM will be a lasting resource for generations to come."
Plan your Tuesday evenings so that you can come and deepen your understanding of our beautiful faith by putting these dates in your diary now.
