On every First Saturday of the month Fr. Kevin Rai will be conducting the Marian Mornings in our parish. ‘Marian Mornings’ is a mini-retreat starting with Holy Mass at 8:45 AM and ending with a Holy Hour at 11:00 AM. Between these two periods of prayer, there will be a break for light refreshments and a brief teaching on the Spirituality of Mary, the Mother of Jesus. St. John Neumann will be hosting this event for anyone who wishes to attend. All are welcome to share in the whole morning or any part of it.

Modern Selves, Virtue, and Virtue Signaling Dr. Carl Trueman will explore how our understanding of ourselves has transformed how we think of institutions, virtues, and the purpose of life.  This provocative discussion will cover the psychologizing of the self, the role of technology, the changing purpose of institutions, and the death of privacy. Dr. Trueman is a professor at Grove City College, a fellow at the Ethics and Public Policy Center (eppc.org), and a contributing editor at First Things. His latest bestseller is The Rise and Triumph of the Modern Self.
