Happy New Year!
A suggestion for a New Year’s Resolution:
Designate a specific time this week to watch one of the FORMED videos you missed.
You might start with the most popular video: SESSION ONE: The Bible: God’s Love letter to Humanity.
Or SESSION THREE: Who Is Jesus? especially relevant as we end this Christmas season.
Or maybe SESSION TWO appeals to you – The Story of Salvation: Creation, Fall, Redemption.
Find each of these videos by clicking the Button below.1. Then click on Generation of Faith Videos2. Finally pick whichever ADULT SESSION you wish to watch (ONE, TWO, or THREE).Helpful handouts with a prayer, brief outline of the video, reflection questions, and quotes from the Catholic Catechism can be printed from the website. Click on Session Three Handouts Adult or Previous Handouts (for Sessions One and Two). A handout can also be emailed to you by sending a request to corpuschristigenerations@gmail.com. (Be sure to specify which handout you want.)
