Father Mark Kelleher and Richard Mitchell on
October 16, 2018 at 6:30 p.m. at Holy Family Church.
The evening is designed as an opportunity for enrichment and will be geared toward those who proclaim the
word of God.
Am I deeply imbued with the spirit of the liturgy? Does my ministry change
the way I engage with others in my family or workplace? Am I building up the Body of Christ as I proclaim God’s word? Do I read authentically? Do I engage the entire assembly when I
read the word? Do I read or proclaim?
Please attend this wonderful night of renewal.
