St. Philip Church - Workshops & Retreats

WORKSHOPS & RETREATS

St. Philip's offers several workshops and retreats through the year. They are a vital tool in building a community as well as enhancing the journey with our Lord.

Our workshops consist of a seminar or series of meetings for the intense study, work or discussion in some particular aspect of the faith experience.

Our retreats offer a withdrawal to a safe, quiet or secluded place for a period of time devoted to religious contemplation away from the pressures of ordinary life, usually a group activity. We encourage to become part of the experience in the any of the following:

CATHOLIC ANSWERS PROGRAM (CAPS)

CAP's is a program for those interested in knowing more about their Catholic faith and tradition. The group meets on Thursday at 7:30 pm in the St. Ann Room located on the east side of Msgr. Logan Hall. All are invited.

CROWN MINISTRIES
A Small Group Financial Study

The Crown Ministries program is a 10-week small group bible study designed to help you manage money God's way. God requires us to be faithful in handling money. Unfortunately, we have learned to handle money from man's perspective, not God's.

Crown Ministries is an in-depth, systematic study of what Scripture teaches about managing money and possessions. Some of the subjects covered are: debt, saving, spending, investing, work, honesty, giving, counsel and teaching our children how to handle money.

This 10-week study is offered three times a year (January, May and September), based on parish interest. It is open to all adults of the parish. Married couples are encouraged to participate together.

For additional information, contact Jim Mosher (661) 833-2218 x161.
