How Americans Understand Abortion and What it Means for the Church
Ave Maria Press
Tuesday, March 2 at 3pm ET
Our national conversation about abortion is often divisive and vitriolic. A recent study reveals ways Americans really think about abortion. The first of its kind, this interview-based study offers insight into the complex array of concerns that influence Americans’ attitudes about abortion and suggest new opportunities for creative catechetical and pastoral response. This webinar will highlight the major findings of the study and discuss their importance for the Church. Register online.
Implementing Accompaniment
NFCYM
Wednesday, March 10 at 2pm ET
In parishes who accompany youth toward discipleship, parents and faith companions are equipped to walk with youth in faith, youth ministry is built around accompaniment, and the parish community includes, values, and cherishes young members. The Accompaniment Project, provided over the last three years by NFCYM in collaboration with the Center for Ministry Development, worked with nine parishes in three dioceses to develop these faith building relationships. This webinar will share the vision, results, and resources of the project, and will equip members of NFCYM to grow accompaniment efforts in dioceses, parish, and Catholic schools. Buy tickets ($10).
