Pre-Selected Questions: What is the official Catholic Church’s teaching on SSA/GD?
How has this experience impacted your faith journey?
If there’s someone in my life who I think experiences SSA and is struggling with Church teaching, how do I walk (and talk) with them in faith?
Would this be any different for someone who isn’t a Catholic?
Can I direct someone who I think would benefit from being in this group to you all?

Stewardship is more than just giving to the Church—it’s a personal and spiritual response to God’s invitation. But how do we discern how and how much we are called to give? This talk will explore the biblical roots of stewardship, its spiritual significance in the life of a disciple, and practical ways ordinary Catholics can approach this call with intention and freedom.

He holds a Master’s in Philanthropy and Development from St. Mary’s University of Minnesota, previously served at the Newman Center for six years, and has worked with the Western Dominican Province for the past eleven years.

This week we will hear from the Executive Director of Next Step: The Sacredness of Human Life: Next Step Pregnancy Services Forging Better Outcomes of Those We Serve.
“Since the first century the church has affirmed the moral evil of every procured abortion. This teaching has not changed and is not changeable. (CC 2271) - The distraction lies in the idea that it is not the start of life that renders it sacred but that its being life itself does that. Please join us for a presentation on how organizations like Next Step stand in the gap between what is certain and what is mercurial in today's society.”
