St. Patrick Church is reaching out to invite Catholics to come home to our faith community through a series of five weekly sessions held at St. Patrick Church, on Thursday evenings April 15^th- May 13^th 2010 from 7:30-9:00 P.M. in the church office.

“Catholics Returning Home” is a parish based program that seeks to invite Catholics to ‘Come Home’ to a fuller participation in the Catholic Church.  The sessions are conducted in a no pressure, compassionate, support group format for non-practicing Catholics who are seeking answers to questions about returning to the Church.  Everyone is welcomed regardless of circumstance, location, or age.

If you are a Catholic who has been away from the Church for awhile, this invitation is for you. Our faith community misses you and is incomplete without you. No matter how long you have been away, and whatever the reason, we invite you to consider renewing your relationship with the Catholic Church.

If you know someone who has left the Church such as family, friends, neighbors, or co-workers, please extend an invitation to join us. We will explore: Our stories of returning to church, Images of God and Jesus, Relationship with God, Vatican II, Big church vs. little church today, The Nicene Creed, a matter of faith: what we believe as Catholics, Free will: a double edged sword, Reconciliation and forgiveness is a two way street, The Catholic Mass, and The Ministries of St. Patrick Church. There are no fees for this program.

In the spirit of Evangelization, please share this important information with someone you care about…feel free to hand out our Catholics Return Home post cards and fliers.                             Visit our website at www.stpatsparish.org.

For more information, call the Church office at 926-1282, or Linda Wells at 762-4241.

We are family, welcome home!
