SUMMARY:Discovering Purpose Beyond Productivity
DESCRIPTION:Attend onsite or online \nSuggested donation: $25 \nWork as Calling and Everyday Mission \nMany people spend most of their lives working\, yet when do we have the time to reflect on how work connects to our faith and vocation? \nExplore the Catholic understanding of vocation as participation in God’s ongoing work in the world. Together\, we will examine how our gifts\, responsibilities\, relationships\, and professional lives can become expressions of discipleship and service. Rather than viewing faith as something reserved for Sundays\, discover how God is present and active in the ordinary places where we spend our lives. \nThrough reflection\, conversation\, and prayer\, identify practical ways to bring greater purpose\, integrity\, and mission into your workday (and day off). \nParticipants will: \n\nExplore the Catholic understanding of vocation\nReflect on their gifts and influence\nIdentify opportunities for discipleship in daily life and work\nDevelop practical next steps for living their faith more intentionally\n\nThis program is part of the series Living Wholehearted: Faith at Work. \nRegister

SUMMARY:55Plus Series: Aging Faithfully
DESCRIPTION:Growing older. Growing wiser. Growing closer to God. \nWhat does it mean to grow older with grace\, purpose\, and hope? In a culture that often views aging as decline\, our faith offers a different vision\, one that recognizes the later years of life as a time of wisdom\, freedom\, spiritual depth\, and continued mission. \nJoin us for an engaging conversation with senior Paulist Fathers who have spent decades serving the Church and now find themselves living this new chapter of life with renewed perspective and faith. Through personal stories\, spiritual insights\, and honest reflection\, they will explore the joys\, challenges\, and invitations that come with aging faithfully. \nWhether you are approaching retirement\, navigating a major life transition\, or simply wondering what God may be asking of you in the years ahead\, this evening offers an opportunity to reflect on how every stage of life can become a path to deeper discipleship and hope. \nAttend onsite or online \nSuggested donation: $25 \nRegister
