A life-changing event for our parish family is being scheduled for Friday, April 21st, 2017. This event is designed to make our Catholic Faith alive and powerful. This event is called Reboot Live and will be held at St. Therese Catholic School Gymnasium. See attachments. Reboot Live is the fun, inspiring and practical experience of applying the beauty and genius of the core of the Gospel to every aspect of your life. From prayer and spiritually, to work, dating, marriage, parenting, health and more. God didn't create us to just get by. He created us to live life to the full. Get ready to take your life to a new level - practically and spiritually. This is your chance to rediscover God and rediscover the life you were made for. It is for all ages, 12 and up, from teens to grandparents. So bring the whole family. And please consider inviting a friend, especially someone who doesn't usually come to events at Church. You'll be amazed the impact this event will have on them! Let's get the disengaged to be engaged, the weary to be confident and bold in faith, and strengthen the Body of Christ. Ticket Cost is $20. Great Christmas Gift Idea and Stocking Stuffer. For more information, go to www.reallifecatholic.com/REBOOT
