Hi All. It's Bryan, your friendly neighborhood YAM-NW Co-Chair. Welcome to the first (hopefully of many) Catechist Corner! Before I begin, just to note: Catechist Corner isn't just a place where I (and possibly others) will be teaching different aspects of catechism - at least not solely. The purpose of Catechist Corner is to spotlight different aspects of the Catechist experience and give a glimpse into why I (and others) are called to and truly enjoy this ministry.
Hello all! It's Bryan, your friendly neighborhood YAM-NW Co-Chair, here to talk to y'all a little bit about Lent. Shocker, it starts today. Don't worry, though, if the start of Lent has taken you by surprise - it happens to everyone. Here's some things to remember and think about when Lent.
(Dear Max) || I am dealing with a negative boss at work, and I was wondering what to do about it? This person is quick to criticize, and they seem to always blame their problems on someone else. To make matters worse, they like to spread their bad days to everyone else. What can I do about it?
It’s Elizabeth here to recap the last of our Winter Wine talks. This week, Ray Urban joined us and discussed the role of the Bible in his life and evangelization. Mr. Urban grew up Catholic but did not have a close relationship with Jesus until his health suffered. After this, his wife invited him to her bible study. Next thing he knew, he graduated from the Chicago Catholic Scripture School, run by the archdiocese, covering 95% of the bible. Since his graduation, he actively participates in evangelization at his parish of St. Francis and within the archdiocese. In fact, he facilitated one of the small groups at last year’s archdiocesan young adult study.
