“Conversion: Following the Call of Christ” with Bishop Robert Barron7 sessions: Thursdays, September 26 – November 14; 2:30-3:45 PM Conversion is not a one-time event, but an ongoing, life-long journey of faith. In this study, Bishop Barron uses six biblical stories to demonstrate how six ordinary people experienced a life conversion after they were met by Jesus and called to a better life through him. By exploring these stories, we will come to a deeper understanding of the process of conversion in our own lives, how to discern God’s call to us, how to overcome obstacles that block our answering the call, and the true peace of saying “Yes” to God.

"That Man is You" is coming to COTN Do you ever feel alone in your faith, wonder whether the world is going in the wrong direction, afraid for your children, struggle with sin or addiction, or feel you have no place to turn? "That Man is You" is a Catholic Men's program that can help you be a better husband, father, grandfather, co-worker, and Catholic. It is a once-a-week reset of your priorities and re-alignment of your attitude which can make the rest of the things you face easier to handle. The program will be starting this September, right after Labor Day, and goes 13 weeks in the fall, a December break, and then 13 weeks in the spring. You don't have to go to each session, but once you go a few times, you will see benefits in your own life and won't want to miss a week. The program is 90 minutes long, starting at 7:00 AM sharp on Saturdays, beginning with 30 minutes of fellowship and conversation with brother parishioners, a 30 minute video about relevant topics, and 30 minutes of small group discussion. You will be done before most people wake up on Saturday, so you won't miss any other family obligations or weekend events.
