Living and Leading in God's Word

The retreat team at St. Hedwig's Parish in Union City (Naugatuck) is living God's Word and helping prepare the parish for the 2015 World Meeting of Families to be held in Philadelphia next September.

CBS first-year student, Norm Chouinard, is part of the effort to create two days of workshops at St. Hedwig's in Lent and summer 2015.

"These workshops will be grounded in the official catechesis of the event, called 'Love is our Mission' published by Our Sunday Visitor, writes Chouinard. "Our event will include panel discussions on relevant topics such as a Catholic biblical understanding of marriage and family, best practices for family survival by a Catholic humorist, and more.

If you are interested in hearing more about the event (and possibly creating something similar in your parish?), Norm Chouinard can be reached through St. Hedwig Church at 203-729-2490.
