Have you thought about your relationship with Jesus? Do you have one? As followers of Christ we are called into relationship with Jesus and ultimately the Holy Spirit, and God the Father too! And not only that, we are also called invite others to encounter Jesus! While it is not always an easy task, there are ways to help.

Some of these initiatives include Alpha, Christ Life, and Sycamore to name a few. See below a list of the parishes hosting these programs starting this week and in the weeks to come.
