Come join us for Middle School Ministry on November 9th. The teens will play fun games, like a game called minefield. During the night, students will learn to answer the question “how can a good God exist if there is evil and suffering in the world.” This question, according to recent surveys (given to adults), has the biggest percentage for why people identify as “none” in religious affiliation. We’ll be exploring this question and what the Catholic faith believes about this question.

For those kids who want to get to room 3 early, I’ll open the doors at 5:30 PM. They can play billiards, foosball, and air hockey until 6:00 PM when our program starts!

So he ran ahead and climbed a sycamore tree in order to see Jesus, who was about to pass that way.
When he reached the place, Jesus looked up and said,
"Zacchaeus, come down quickly,
for today I must stay at your house."
And he came down quickly and received him with joy.
When they all saw this, they began to grumble, saying,
"He has gone to stay at the house of a sinner."
But Zacchaeus stood there and said to the Lord,
"Behold, half of my possessions, Lord, I shall give to the poor,
and if I have extorted anything from anyone
I shall repay it four times over."
And Jesus said to him,
"Today salvation has come to this house
because this man too is a descendant of Abraham.
For the Son of Man has come to seek
and to save what was lost." - Lk 19:1-10
