Parish Table Talk
- ChristLife National Training Conference: The annual gathering will take place April 20-22, 2016 at St. Philip Neri Parish in Linthicum Heights, MD. Meet a vibrant community of religious and lay leaders who are seeking to answer the Church’s call for the new evangelization. Archbishop Lori will be present to open the conference.
- Theology of the Body: ReverbCulture (a great blog for Catholic millennials) has featured an interesting article about the wider implications of Pope St. John Paul II’s Theology of the Body. The author particularly highlights Emily Stimpson’s book These Beautiful Bones: An Everyday Theology of the Body. Consider checking out both the book and the blog!
