Catholics Returning Home
DO YOU KNOW SOMEONE who has left the Church or stopped practicing the Catholic faith? Most of us do not have to look very far to find someone in this category. We are concerned about these loved ones, but we don’t know how to help them. Many non-practicing Catholics are searching and we can help them find their way home. To do this, we are going to offer a program called: “Catholics Returning Home.” The Catholics Returning Home sessions will begin on Wednesday, Jan. 8 at 6:30 p.m. at the St. Francis Xavier Parish Office Building, 106 S. Third St. Additional dates for the sessions will be: Jan. 15, 22, 29, Feb. 5 and 12. For more information, you may contact our Parish Office at 812-882-5638 or email me at: ternst@evdio.org. We would appreciate knowing if someone is interested so we can plan accordingly. It would be a great Christmas gift to welcome someone back home to the Church.
