Robert Spitzer, S.J.) of Healing the Culture, will be the keynote speaker for our annual Conference held on August 11-12. Camille will unfold the four levels of happiness and basic Catholic principles that help us to experience the deepest happiness. These principles and insights will provide us with a steady compass for navigating the mainstream culture when we encounter bad ideas and values. The presentations will include engaging, interactive exercises. Every Catholic, especially those involved with handing on the Faith, needs these principles that give a solid underpinning to discussion about marriage, pre-marital sex, abortion, assisted suicide, and so many other issues. There are flyers and brochures in the back of church.
