COUPLES FOR CHRIST FOUNDATION FOR FAMILY AND LIFE - admin
Rationale:
In this time and age, there are many Christians (Catholic and non-Catholic) who can be labeled as nominal since they are engaged in the worship life of their church and yet appear to live lives that are contrary to the principles espoused in the congregations they attend in at least every week. There is a need to bring these Christians into a gradual exposure and yet non-intimidating introduction to Catholic doctrine and into a renewed and personal relationship with the Lord Jesus Christ. Apart from bringing these people into a renewed experience of their faith, it is necessary to provide a support environment to sustain the new found relationship and the gradual discovery of the other facets of their faith. This seminar is meant to be such an introduction. However, more than that, and in a more subtle way, it is a step-by-step living out of the way of life in the CFC-FFL USA community.
General Objectives:
The CLS is intended to achieve the following:
1. Bring the participant to repentance and a renewed faith in Jesus.
2. Empower the participant in the Christian life through baptism in the Holy Spirit.
3. Integrate the participant into a strong environment of support and ongoing formation.
Participants:
Participants may be any Christian individual or couple.
Seminar Description:
The Christian Life Seminar (CLS) is an integrated course intended to lead the seminar participants into a renewed understanding of and response to God’s call to them as Christians. The seminar has a total of 9 separate sessions, usually held once a week.
The CLS has three modules of three sessions each. The first module presents the absolute basics of Christian life. The second module presents the kind of life that God calls us to, and helps individuals, whatever status they are in, to make a reorientation of their lives around Jesus. The third module helps these individuals to appropriate for their lives the power of the Holy Spirit, and provides the basis for continuing spiritual growth.

The topics of the sessions are:
Module 1: THE BASIC TRUTHS ABOUT CHRISTIANITY
1. God's love
2. What it means to be a Christian
3. Repentance and faith
Module 2: THE AUTHENTIC CHRISTIAN LIFE
4. The Christian ideal: loving God
5. Loving your neighbor
6. Life in the Holy Spirit
Module 3: LIVING A SPIRIT-FILLED CHRISTIAN LIFE
7. Receiving the power of the Holy Spirit
8. Growing in the Spirit
9. Transformation in Christ

Journeying Together

· Is something missing in your life?
· Could it be a calling from God to serve either as a diocesan or religious priest or brother?
· Would you like to speak with others who feel the same way?

If so, please consider attending an afternoon of prayer, reflection and discussion at Good Shepherd Friary in New York City , last stop on the “A” train or the Dyckman Street exit on the Henry Hudson Parkway . These free informal gatherings, with refreshments, meet the last Sunday of every month beginning with Sunday, September 28th from 2:00 to 5:00pm.

For men 18 to 40 who feel they may have a call to religious life and/or priesthood and would like a forum to discuss this with others who have similar interest…

Course on St Paul and his Letters - ROA217
In commemoration of this year as the 2000th year of the birthday of St Paul, the Immaculate Conception Parish of Astoria is holding a series of Tuesday evening lectures starting Tuesday, July 15th and will run Tuesday nights from 7:30-9PM in the school auditorium and will end on Tuesday August 5th. The class is free, and is conducted by seminarian Michael Bruno. Those who are interested are asked to bring a Bible and any writing materials necessary if you would like to take notes. The parish is located at 21-47 29th Street in Astoria, Queens. It can be reached by taking the N or W train to Ditmars Blvd. the church is 1 block down near 31st Av (near Starbuck's). You can call the parish office at 718-728-1613 M-F 10-11:30am, 2-4pm, and 7-8pm for more information.

I attended the 1st class and I found it very informative and interesting. Michael is a very good lecturer and he definitely knows his stuff. Michael is a seminarian in the Diocese of Brooklyn entering his third year of theological studies. He is presently assigned to the Pontifical North American College in Rome, and has been assigned by Bishop DiMarzio to serve at Immaculate Conception Parish in Astoria for the next two summers. He encouraged us to invite more people to attend the lectures and so I am extending this invitation to our SFC brothers and sisters.

God Bless us all!
