A follow up to our Eternal Rest video series! Join us at 2pm Wednesdays, June 28 to July 26 for a book study of No Regrets: Embracing the Fourth Quater of Your Life by Matthew Kelly. This series wil help any age adult focus on what is really important as they navigate their later years with dignity and hope.  Each week we will discuss a chapter and then do some activities from the accompanying workbook.

From Amazon: Just as she’s turning 60, a life-altering event brings Lisa face to face with this startling realization. The mother of three beautiful children, grandmother to a sweet newborn grandson, a woman with close friends and plenty of activities to keep her busy, Lisa thought she was satisfied with her ordinary life. But now she just can’t shake the feeling that something is missing. Determined to die with no regrets, Lisa launches into a powerful journey to make the most of the fourth and final quarter of her life. A captivating and groundbreaking fable, No Regrets is the only book out there that provides a roadmap for how to make the most of the final season of life. If you, like Lisa, are searching for greater meaning in your life, then join authors Allen Hunt and Matthew Kelly as they reveal five incredible secrets to living intentionally and making the most of your own fourth quarter. No matter what quarter of life you find yourself in, you will be inspired, moved, and encouraged to make the most of the one life you’ve been given.

 Books will be free of charge but a donation is always appreciated. Please RSVP Here or call the parish office by June 19 so we can order the books.
