Hear all about how Holy Redeemer Parish in Vancouver, Washington uses books like Dr. Edward Sri’s The Art of Living and complementary video content available on FORMED to run parish book discussion groups and increase FORMED enrollment.
Mark MacKenzie will join us to discuss how Holy Redeemer’s popular book study program involves people in the life of the parish and enriches adult faith formation. Mark will also address the topic of innovation in parish programs generally, and the rewards of grace and stronger community that follow from wisely discerned parish program innovation.
Hear about the new Grade 6 Word of Life curriculum from Dr. Tim Gray, president of the Augustine Institute. The Grade 6 Word of Life Curriculum teaches that the Bible tells us the Good News of Jesus Christ. And that Jesus wants each of us to experience personally the happiness of God’s friendship forever. This joyful, kerygmatic proclamation of the Good News is sure to evangelize and engage students, parents, and catechists alike. Hear all about it––and see the Word of Life Grade 6 student texts and teachers’ manuals––from Dr. Gray. Dr. Gray joins the Augustine Institute’s Brian Truckenbrod on this special Parish Leader Webinar to talk about why Grade 6 Word of Life is a kerygmatic imperative for the Church and for Catholics today.
