Relativism – Who Am I To Judge?
In this small group study program featuring Edward Sri, we'll explore the classical view of morality and find that it's not merely a set of guiding principles for theoretical situations – it is an entire way of life. What is "right" and "wrong"? Is what's right for you right for me? Is there a right and wrong for everyone, all the time?
These are difficult questions to discuss in our culture. We live in a society that supports the opinion that each person should make up this or her own morality. Many of us have been affected by the relativistic outlook that pervades the modern world. Maybe we don't know who to explain our moral convictions or are afraid of being labeled intolerant. How do we talk about morality in a relativistic world?
For this program, we will begin with a prayer and discussion question, then watch a 30-minute video, followed by more discussion and a closing prayer.
The parish has one copy of the videos on DVD but they may also be viewed in the FORMED app or by logging into the FORMED website (scroll to bottom of this page).
The small groups will begin January 24 and will last 8 weeks.

A Minute in the Church by Gus LloydAre you looking for something to help you brush up on the basics of the faith? Maybe you need a simple and concise way to explain the faith to a family member or friend. Gus Lloyd has the answer for you, A Minute in the Church booklets offer one minute explanations about the basics of the faith. We have two of his booklets, A Minute in the Church: Back to the Basics and A Minute in the Church: The Mass available for you at both St. Mary and St. Patrick Churches. Back to the Basics cover the Ten Commandments, the Sacraments, Virtues, Capital Sins, Precepts of the Church, and the Gifts of the Holy Spirit. The Mass covers the history of the Mass, items we see in the church and their significance, and then goes through each part of the Mass from the Procession to the Sending – what it is and why we do it. These can be used in your family during dinner table discussion or when gathered with family or friends for a weekly study. Pick up your copy today!
