Considering that it is the Christmas season, the time to celebrate the birth of Christ, we will be discussing the desire for God. Is the desire for God in the hearts of all humans? What points us to God? How do we respond to non-believers? The reading materials are sections 27-43 in the Catechism of the Catholic Church. Participants are strongly advised to read the selections prior to the meeting in preparation for the group discussion.

The link to the readings can be found below:
