BULLETIN BOARD

Evansville East
 

Faithful Citizenship Lectures:  We find ourselves in a heated political debate. 
Often it is said you should not talk about religion or politics, well that tends to leave us out of everything. 
Christians are called to be in the world, but not of the world. 
It is important that we become informed with the issues as recounted in the
Bishop’s Document on Faithful Citizenship.   Holy Rosary Catholic Church in Evansville will host
two Faithful Citizenship Lectures.   Everyone is welcome.  Childcare will be provided at no cost. 
For more information, please call Holy Rosary at 477-8923.

CL Evansville (Communion and Liberation) is a Young Adult Group that
meets weekly every Monday Night at 6:30 PM.  This
group comes together for community, spiritual enhancement and service.
In CL -We learn to perceive the sense of the Mystery, upon which our
life depends, and to live the Catholic faith through a companionship
within everyday life. Community life is built through the "School of
Community", a weekly meeting with study and discussion about a text.
The text communicates the experience of Father Giussani's charism in a
systematic form that helps us judge our lives and the life of the Church
and of the world. Please contact Phil Zenthoefer - 812-305-5486.
