AN INVITATION FROM MAGHERAFELT PARISH PASTORAL COUNCIL

 

Our journey around the world and deep into faith continues this coming week!

Episode 2 ‘Happy Are We – The Teachings of Jesus’

The revelation of Jesus as God is accompanied by a stunning invitation to a unique new way of life.  Our journey continues from the magnificent cathedral of Amiens in France, to the stalwart cities of Krakow and Warsaw in Poland and to the cosmopolitan centre of New York.  He will use these sites to show how the Catholic Church is a living culture which gives witness to the inviolable dignity of the human person.  This episode will also present reflections on some of the greatest examples of Christian art with visits to the Colmar Museum in Germany and the galleries of The Hermitage in St. Petersburg.

The episode will be followed by a short discussion of the episode and its content.
