Apologia - Fourth Session - an Exploration of the Church's Understanding of Suffering - Sunday 15th March, 5pm
A Lenten exploration of the Church's understanding of Suffering
The initiative "Apologia" will return in Lent with an exploration of the Catholic Church's understanding of suffering. The date is Sunday 15th March at 5pm to 6.30pm in the parish centre. The sessions got off to a good start in September with a walk through the elements of the Mass. This was followed by the second session on 'The Last Things' examining the Church's teaching on heaven and hell, death and judgement. The next session, entitled 'Faith and Reason' helped us examine the relationship between faith and science, with particular reference to Pope St John Paul II's teaching in his 1998 encyclical 'Fides et Ratio'. Do make a note in your diary for the March session on suffering and join us for this popular and informative event.
To prepare for the Apologia series, a number of parishioners were interviewed by Fr Simon about their faith. These interviews are presented in a series of videos which can be accessed at the link below. Thank you to all who contributed for their willingness to share what their faith means to them.
