Like the Wise Men, we are on a journey as well.
And if we are to have happy fulfilled lives, we have
to know the end of that journey. We have to see
the star that tells us that our God is at the end of
that journey waiting for us, and maybe not in the
way we even imagine it. If we keep that end in
sight, we can put up with the perilous journey that
we take through life. The ups and downs of our
relationships, the suffering and sickness, the
plunderers, the sins that pull us down and weigh
heavy on us, the depressions that we sometimes
sink into. How do we keep going? What sustains
us through all the bad parts of life? It is knowing
what the end will be and
how we can give God the gift of ourselves –
our love, our praise, our sufferings.
Lay Formation Workshop: Bioethics 101
Saturday January 25th 9:30am to 2:30pm at St. Augustine’s Seminary 2661
Kingston Rd., Scarborough
Join us as Dr. Patricia Murphy, Assistant Professor of
Moral Theology at St. Augustine’s Seminary, leads
participants in an exploration of current bioethical issues
and the Church’s teachings surrounding these issues.
Topics to be covered include: what the Church teaches
about recent developments in “new reproductive
technologies,” how Catholics should respond to the call
for physician-assisted suicide, and what truly
compassionate and dignified “end of life” care involves.
Cost is $40 and includes lunch. To register please call
416-261-7207, ext. 235 or email ioftsas@rogers.com.
