We are also asking Our Lady to obtain a new outpouring of the Holy Spirit in the Church, bringing about our deeper conversion to the heart of Jesus Christ and institutional renewal at every level.

“Journey with Jesus From Jerusalem” is the second part of our spring 2021 adult faith-formation and education program at Saints Simon and Jude parish. In this part of the program, we will watch and discuss the first season of “The Chosen” (8 episodes, available at https://studios.vidangel.com/the-chosen). Classes will take place on Sundays from 10:30 AM to 11:20 AM in The Meehan Center and we will watch and discuss one episode per week. We will meet on April 18 and 25; on May 2, 9, 16, and 23 (no meeting on May 30 for Memorial Day); and on June 6 and 13. The purpose of the program is (1) to provide a context for a greater understanding of how Jesus called his disciples to follow him, and (2) to self-examine how we are called by Christ to be his disciples in the world today. The discussion leader is Dr. Joe Zalot, a Staff Ethicist at the National Catholic Bioethics Center and a parishioner at Saints Simon and Jude.
