Returning Catholics/Landings
Landings offers a supportive community setting within which participants have an opportunity to speak with ordinary Catholics about faith-related questions, issues and difficulties. It is a safe environment for returning Catholics to come to terms with recent changes in the Church and in themselves.
The Process
After an initial interview, the returning Catholic is directed to a LANDINGS group. Groups are scheduled for the Fall and Spring. The group will meet for approximately 6-8 weeks in two-hour sessions. The conclusion of the program will be a retreat.
Why Attend?
Landings is:
- a supportive community within which a person can ask questions, discuss issues, deal with difficulties
- an opportunity to be with ordinary Catholics who are trying to live their faith
- a safe environment to come to terms with recent changes within the Catholic Church and themselves
- a great way to meet people and get involved in the parish
Membership
A group of six to eight active Catholics join together to welcome two or three returning Catholics to share and explore faith together.
Events
Landings presents two 6-8 week sessions, one in the fall and one in the spring. The sessions meet in the evening designated for each session and are followed by a half day or evening of reflection and an opportunity for Reconciliation.
Meetings
Once weekly, 7 - 9 PM
