Road to the Well: Dignity, Identity, Purpose

November 19 @ 7:00 pm - 8:30 pm

Discovering Our Path to Jesus and the Eucharist

Rediscover the joy of being fully known and loved by God.  Explore how the encounter between Jesus and the woman at the well (John 4) reveals our own path of conversion and deep relationship with him. Through the lens of Theology of the Body and the wisdom of St. John Paul II, we’ll uncover how our faith calls us to become a truly Eucharistic people – rooted in love, renewal, and communion.

November 19: Dignity, Identity, Purpose: How John Paul II Opened Us to a Mature  Relationship with God 

  • Mary Jo Thayer, TOB Educator, speaker, and author, will present how Man and Woman He Created  Them: A Theology of the Body lays out God’s plan for Creation, leading us to a more  personal and deeper relationship with God.

January 21: Dignity, Identity, Purpose: What Gives Us Purpose

  • Melissa Krupp, co-founder of The Abundant Catholic, podcaster, writer, and Catholic Couples Mentor, will share her conversion story when she recognized Christ’s presence in her life in learning about God’s plan for Creation. 

February 25: Dignity, Identity, Purpose: You are Seen 

  • Veronica Quintino-Aranda, a TOB Institute Certified Trainer, MSW, and Spiritual Director, will present how God sees us as His beloved children of God as Jesus saw the Woman at the Well. 

March 18: Dignity, Identity, Purpose: Jesus’ Redeeming Love Transforms Us
