Healing Stories in the Bible : Wholeness as a Path to Holiness
Join us each week in the parish hall during the formation hour. Luke 10:27 tells us to “ Love the Lord God with all your heart, with all your soul, with all your strength , and with all your mind.” We will be focusing on all four dimensions of our being: heart, soul, strength and mind and how they are interconnected . The goal is to help us learn how we can strive for balance and wellness in our daily lives and be invited to live an undivided life where heart, soul, strength and mind are integrated into both our being and our doing.
