Bio-Ethics for Beginners
October 28, 2022
7 Pm
Old Mecklenburg Brewery, Big Red Tent
Every October we reflect on the value and gift of each and every human life. What is a human life and why do we value it? These are the questions that launch the big, beautiful and sometimes terrifying studying of bio-ethics. Come talk to Father Sanchez about the basics of bio-ethics on Friday, October 28, 2022.
All Saints Day
October 31, 2022
7 pm
Vigil Mass for the Feast of All Saints (Nov. 1)
Saint Matthew
Join us for Mass! We will have a section in the back on the right reserved for our Young Adult Life group. All Saints Day is a Holy Day of Obligation – what better way to spend it than with a bunch of friends trying to become saints.
eucaristia
What does it mean to give thanks?
November 18, 2022
7 pm
Old Mecklenburg Brewery, Big Red Tent
What does eucaristia mean and how has it become the word we identify with the Sacrifice of the Mass? Father Torres is going to lead us in this discussion and open the floor for questions you have always wanted to ask about the Mass.
Coming up after Christmas…
Life in the Present Moment
Father Jonathan Torres

Come join in the conversation on Friday, September 30, 6-9 pm, at Old Mecklenburg Brewery. We will be in the Big Red Tent.
