THE YEAR OF ST. PAUL

            The Holy Father Pope Benedict XIV has named this the year of St. Paul from June 28, 2008-June29, 2009. Periodically, the Church sets aside an entire year to encourage all of us to focus on some particular and important aspect of our Faith. This year, we are given an opportunity to honor one to the great Saints and founders of the early Church, the Apostle. Paul. In doing this the Holy Father has ask us to follow in the footsteps of this Saint in spreading the good news to all peoples without fear.

            In our unity with the Holy Father the parishioners of St. Elizabeth Ann Seton parish will start working to develop open inquiry classes as well as “welcome home” talks for those who have fallen away from the embrace of the Church. If you would like to know more about our inquiry sessions please click on the “RCIA” link to find out more. If you are a Catholic who has fallen away or know someone who is please click on the link that says “Welcome Home”.                   Many blessings to you and your family!

What is an inquiry session?

            An inquiry session is an opportunity for those interested in finding out more about Jesus Christ and the Catholic Church. In the beginning we start with an overview of the true teachings of Jesus Christ from the Trinity to the ecclesia or “Church”. We work through the different aspects of the saving message of Jesus and what His message of Salvation has to do with us. We let you have an opportunity for fellowship during these times and an ability to ask questions which might me on your mind.
