Intentional Communities

Like the Holy Trinity, our Christian love is fully expressed when it is lived out in relationship with others. At Stella Maris, we want to support any parishioners who feel the call to come together in a small community to share in their journeys of faith, catechesis and mission. Led by James Pereira, this 8 week workshop will present a new vision of creating and sustaining
intentional communities within Stella Maris.

*Postponed until a later date*.

Easter Book Study

Sign up to read the book Hope: An Anchor for the Soul by Amy Welborn, a 30-day personal pilgrimage of hope. Each day’s devotional reflection is anchored by Scripture, prayerful reminders, encouragement and virtuous actions for grounding readers in Christian hope and equipping them to grow in hope and bring that hope to the world.

Each participant will be given a free copy of the book and can be assigned to an email group for online discussions (optional). There will also be a wrap-up night at the end of the book study.

Book pick-up: starting April 11.

Email groups: starting April 18.
