This years talks:

Keynote:
"Virtues that Last a Lifetime – “The Greatest of These is Love”"

Synopsis:
How do we build a loving homeschooling family? How do we practice and teach our children to love God and our neighbor? The greatest of the theological virtues is love yet as parents, spouses and homeschooling families we sometimes fail to demonstrate love to those closest to us. This morning we will focus on the foundation of building a loving family life.

Sunday Morning Talk:
"The Hour that Changes the World – Practical Praying for busy People"

Synopsis:
“Could you not watch with me one hour?” Jesus asked His disciples in the garden of Gethsemane. Although we often want to pray more frequently and more deeply the demands of a busy life style often make it difficult. Our minds wander during Mass, the Rosary and Adoration of the Blessed Sacrament. Even our personal quiet time before the Lord is distracted. The first part of the session we will look at a way to structure your prayer time that is very simple and effective and then we will practice praying what we have learned. You will come away refreshed by your time spent with the Lord.
