Hi everyone! :)
there is a Patrician Meeting coming up on MONDAY! :) It's set to be a very interesting and insightful session and very apt for us, Catholics this month - as the topic is on Mary. so, do come on down if you've time.
What is a Patrician Meeting?
The Patrician Meeting is a discussion forum organised regularly by the Legion of Mary that aims to train Catholics to explain their faith to others as well as enrich their knowledge on the Church's teaching on certain controversial issues (past topics include purgatory, suffering, abortion, free will, etc.) The atmosphere is intended to be similar to that of a family discussion where each person is free to speak out without fear of being ridiculed or criticised, rather than a debate or an argument, or a lecture. Each Patrician Meeting lasts for two hours which includes a short opening talk by a lay speaker and input from a priest on top of the general discussion, as well as a break for refreshments.
Details! :)
The next one will be this coming Monday, 20 October, 7 p.m. at Central Library Theaterette 2. Topic is "I Can Do without Mary." The Legion will be tackling the importance of Mary and Marian devotion. This is one of the issues that non-Catholics frequently bring up, so it's going to be useful. Do support Legion and also go and learn more about our faith.
takecare one and all!
love,
-Cherylyn
