“But you shall receive power when the Holy Spirit has come upon you; and you shall be my witnesses in Jerusalem and in Judea and Samaria and to the ends of the earth.”;
(Acts 1:18)

Dear Friends,
We hope you are having a blessed summer with your families and friends and in the love of the Lord who seems to give us treasures wherever we are and whatever we are doing.  The Lord gives us rest and restoration so that we can begin anew.
 
After watching the events of World Youth Day on TV, hearing the words of our Holy Father, Pope Francis, listening to the wonderful music, seeing the Stations of the Cross, watching  the Prayer Vigil and the Final Mass, we should be inspired by the enthusiasm of the youth of the world in their love for Christ and his Church. How appropriate for us to be engaging in study of the evangelization of the Early Church as we live out the New Evangelization of the faithful in the 21^st Century!
 
The Great Adventure continues on Mondays, September 9, 16, 23 and 30 at 9:30 AM and 6:30 PM with the Church as told in the Acts of the Apostles. To prepare for our first session, we ask that you please read Acts 1:1-8:4 and to pray for the outpouring of the Holy Spirit  to “fill the hearts of the faithful and enkindle in us the fire of his love” that the Word of God become the Living Word within us and empower us to “Go and make disciples of all nations.”;
 
We look forward to seeing each of you on September 9^th. For more information, please contact Mary Kuhn at (781) 878-0835.
