ST. JOSEPH'S 2017 PARISH MISSION

"The Lord is Risen, Do You Believe?"

presented by Deacon Ralph Poyo

Sunday, October 15 - Wednesday, October 18

Deacon Ralph Poyo has experienced how God seeks to transform us at the very core of our being, which transformation becomes “the reason for the hope that (we) have” (1 Peter 3:15). Armed with this knowledge and over twenty years of experience, he is being sent to teach others how to become evangelists – how to bring others to Jesus and then get out of the way! Deacon Ralph comes highly recommended and has been conducting missions for 20  years. We are excited to bring him to St. Joseph's.

What is a Parish Mission?

It is a challenge and an opportunity to revive your faith. For four nights in October, we hope to have 350 to 450 enthusiastic participants come each evening to be reminded of the challenge that Jesus lays before us, “…to love others as I have loved you.”

The themes for each of the four days are as follows:

Sunday, October 15
After the 6:30 p.m. Mass
Are You In or Just Playing Church?

Monday, October 16
6:30 p.m.
Are We Committed to Truth or Lies?

Tuesday, October 17
6:30 p.m.
The Transforming Life of the Holy Spirit

Wednesday, October 18
6:30 p.m.
Becoming an Authentic Disciple of Jesus Christ

Each evening presentation will be in the church with refreshments and reflection following in The Gathering Place. It is not mandatory to attend all evenings.
