Spirituality Seminar Series
Church of St. Joseph

The second seminar of the season will be on Friday, October 25, 2019.  The seminar leader will be Fr. Rufus Kenny.  The presentation is entitled:

The Four Last Things

What do we actually know about life after death? What has the Church consistently taught  concerning the soul, where it goes and what it will experience when transitioning to the world to come? Death, Judgement, Heaven and Hell. These four realities, in addition to the subject of Purgatory, are truths that need to be better understood by all Catholics, especially as we approach the month of November, which is the month of All Souls. Please join Fr. Kenny as he explains the theology surrounding these doctrines of the Faith, so that each one of us can better prepare for that day when we each will be called to meet Our Lord.

Fr. Kenny was ordained in May of 2017 and is a Parochial Vicar at St Joseph’s Church in Somers, NY

Healing Our Ailing Church and Nation

Can we heal our ailing Church and our torn Nation? Maybe not as individuals but we can transform our own world , our little orbit within our Church and our Nation. We will reflect on what the Scripture teaches us about healing wounds
and how we can help our Church and our Nation in practical ways.
