programs offer Catholic adults of all ages an opportunity to

interesting and important issues which shape the lives of
Catholic adults in the Church today.
Presenters and participants alike
enjoy the relaxed and informal atmosphere which contributes to a
stimulating combination of presentation and discussion.
Beverages and food are available before, during and after the
presentations.
Cellar programs are free and open to
the public. No registration.

The Mystery of God
In this session we examine what
Catholics believe about God -- "that than which nothing greater can
be thought," in the words of St. Anselm. Fr. Barron explains
St. Thomas Aquinas' arguments for the existence of God and
examines the question of evil as it relates to the existence of
God.
Tuesday, January 24, 2012
The Body of Christ
In this session we examine what
Catholics believe about the nature of the Church, the Body of
Christ. Fr. Barron explains the one, holy, catholic and
apostolic nature of the Church and the unique mystical union
between Christ and his Church which can be experienced but not
fully understood.

The Word Made Flesh
In this session we study the
mystery of the Liturgy and the Eucharist. Fr. Barron explores
the Catholic belief that "all value is summed up in the liturgy,
the supreme act by which we commune with God," and explains how
the Eucharist functions as the "source and summit" of Catholic
life.
Tuesday, February 7, 2012
The Communion of Saints
In this session we study the
Catholic understanding of the Church as a "vast company of
witnesses" who are called by Christ into the Communion of
Saints. Fr. Barron discusses some of the Church's great
heroes and demonstrates how their lives display both the passion
and the potential of the Catholic Church
