Enaging Spirituality

• Are you concerned about how to live an authentic life in a world where
  suffering and injustice are so pervasive?
• Are you searching for guiding wisdom about how to follow Jesus with
  integrity in these times?
• Are you open to opportunities for spiritual growth?
  
  If your answer to these questions is an enthusiastic "YES," then you may be
  ready for a new JustFaith project called Engaging Spirituality.
  
  Engaging Spirituality invites Catholic adults to break open their lives,
  penetrate the realities of our times, and explore the intersection between
  Christian spirituality and Gospel justice.
