Join a Small Faith-Sharing Group - Lent 2008

February 6, 2008 is Ash Wednesday, the beginning of Lent. One way to make these 40 days of preparation for Easter more meaningful is to journey each week with a group of folks to share faith and grow as Christians.

What folks have said about past small groups…

  • "I loved it; felt challenged in my faith, truly enjoyed the fellowship."
  • "It was such a wonderful way to feel closer to God. It was my first experience with a prayer group and has made me feel more motivated and spiritual."
  • "It was the kick-start that I needed to stop my spiritual slacking."

Groups:
- Typically 6-10 people
- Meet in homes or at the parish
- 90 minutes each week; most groups reflect on the upcoming Sunday scripture readings from Mass as well as include time for prayer, faith sharing and reflection
- Registration on a first come-first served basis; all materials provided at a minimal cost of $3.50 per person

PLEASE only sign up for a group if you are able to make the commitment. If groups fill, new groups can be opened if new facilitators come forward. Open your heart this Lent.

To register: Call or email the facilitator directly of the group you wish to attend and provide your:

- Name
- Email
- Day and evening phone numbers

Other questions? Contact Michelle Miller 703-527-5500 x115 or adultfaith@stcharleschurch.org.
