Part 2: Strengthening One’s Relationship with God: Prayer and Sacraments

The Catechism of the Catholic Church emphasises the importance of prayer and the Sacraments in the life of a Christian. It refers to prayer as the means through which we celebrate our faith in God and enter into a personal relationship with Him (2558). As we do this, the Sacraments mark all the important stages of our Christian life and sustain us in our sense of mission as Christians (1210). Join us as we explore what prayer is, the difference between saying prayers and praying, and how the seven Sacraments can deepen and give meaning to our unique relationship with God.

Dates: Tuesdays, 1—15 June (3 sessions)
From: 7.30pm-8.30pm
With: Sr Margaret Scharf OP and Fr Vincent Glynn
At: Balcatta Parish, 392 Albert St, Balcatta
Suggested donation: $5 per session

This course is a 4-part series on: Scripture, Prayer and Sacraments, Christian Anthropology and Catholic Values. To register, please call the parish office on 93447066 or email This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it.
