Do you know a young man who loves that Lord and has a heart for service? Invite him to participate in our next retreat.
October 10-11
St. Charles Center, Carthagena, Ohio

“Choosing the Banquet Feast of Heaven”

This retreat is for men ages 18-40 who are discerning their call from God. We will reflect upon how to navigate the distractions in the spiritual life that keep us from responding to God’s call so we can be ready to come to the banquet Christ has prepared for us.
(Matthew 22:1-14).

The Good Shepherd is also the Gate

By Fr Tim McFarland, C.PP.S. A couple of years ago when I was in ministry in Mercer County, Ohio, I had prepared my homily for this Good Shepherd Sunday and noted how perhaps it was (is) difficult for us to identify with this Gospel as we don’t see sheep much – even...
