A Year of Faith: A Time to Discover the Riches of the Faith
Pope Benedict XVI has called for a Year of Faith beginning October 11, 2012 and has encouraged everyone to look to the Catechism to grow deeper in faith. At this year’s Father and Son Retreat, we, too, will look to the Catechism to uncover some of its riches and to discover how it can be used in the family to foster communication and shared growth in faith. In this way, we can prepare ourselves for the optimal reception of grace during the Year of Faith.
