Join us for “BEYOND (Life After Life),” a conversation between CC@S community members Catherine Wolff and Tom Plante.
There is a wealth of experiences and stories in our own CC@S community -- stories that inspire and stories that enlighten.
This 20-30 minute short talk will be followed by an opportunity to meet in small groups and then to ask Catherine and Tom questions, all in under an hour.
Stories are a wonderful way to connect us and to support each other along our path of faith. Let's let the light shine.
