REBUILDING CULTURE

BUILDING A TRULY HUMAN CULTURE

As society separates itself more and more from truth and beauty,
we want to be a place where the treasures of our tradition and civilization can be accessible to all,
in order to promote a Christian culture that elevates out humanity to the stature of Christ.

BENEDICT XVI’S VISION FOR CHURCH RENEWAL

BOOK CLUB: “TURNING TOWARDS THE LORD”
Fr. Daniel | Saturday, March 28, 9:00 AM

Is this practice still valid and advisable today or was it changed by the reforms of Vatican II? Read and come to discuss “Turning towards the Lord” by Uwe Michael Lang, which according to Benedict XVI, clarifies convincingly the question about the orientation of liturgical prayer.
