Episode 8 of the Catholicism Series-“A VAST COMPANY OF WITNESSES: THE COMMUNION OF SAINTS”
This week Wednesday, we are back at Holy Spirit to watch episode 8 of the Catholicism Series by Father Robert Barron that we started back in January. It’s titled “A VAST COMPANY OF WITNESSES: THE COMMUNION OF SAINTS” and a short description is below. We’ll meet in the Connect room in the basement of Holy Spirit at 7:30pm for the movie and discussion and we’ll head out to Applebees afterwards for a bite to eat.
The story of the Church is told in the examples of those men and women who dedicated their lives to knowing and serving Jesus Christ. The Catholic Faith is made visible in real human lives. Father Barron gives consideration to some of the Church’s greatest heroes, and demonstrates how their extraordinary examples display both the passion and creative potential of the Catholic Church. Highlighting Katharine Drexel, Therese of Lisieux, Edith Stein, and Mother Teresa of Calcutta, Father Barron tells the story of the Church as a vast company of witness who are called by Christ to be a Communion of Saints.
