Join us for the "Disrupting Darkness: Light, Love, and the Birth of Jesus" Advent series created by JustFaith Ministries. This series is for hopeful people who believe something new and beautiful is on the horizon. We will explore the ancient story of Jesus' birth through three to four one-hour gatherings, allowing it to transform how we live, love, and act.
We'll start around November 17th. The groups will meet three to four times, and you can specify your preferred day and time during registration. The groups will be organized accordingly, and each will decide when to meet. The meetings will take place at St. Austin, on Zoom, or at someone's house. Additionally, there will be a facilitator training.
When you sign up for this Advent series, you will be asked to log into or create a Ministry Platform (church database) account. For login instructions or any issues related to Ministry Platform, please don't hesitate to contact Lysa Kraft.

About Adult Faith Formation at St. Austin
St. Austin’s Adult Faith Formation looks at the charisms, or pillars, of the Paulist Fathers when creating Adult Faith Formation topics and studies.At the Paulist Fathers 2018 Ordinations Mass, Cardinal Joseph Tobin, C.Ss.R., spoke beautifully about the Paulist Fathers’ mission:
“From its very origin, your congregation has sought to speak the word of God in a language that people can understand. Servant of God Isaac Hecker and his companions suffered much for this passion. Yet their perseverance has enriched the Church in incredible ways. … “
We at St. Austin’s look at how the Holy Spirit will be present in our lives and how it leads us to serve, pray, listen, and study.
We at St. Austin’s look at how to spread the Gospel, the Good News, as St. Paul and St. Phoebe did.
We at St. Austin’s look at how we can be compassionate workers of Christ when working with others towards healing and Reconciliation.
We at St. Austin’s look at how we can bring together different cultures, faiths, people, and so on. The Paulist Fathers work to bring together Christian Unity of One Body of Christ through multicultural studies and gatherings.
Along with Christian Unity, we at St. Austin’s also work with our Brothers and Sisters, and neighbors, of the Jewish and Muslim faith. We look at how we can “engage into dialogue of life, action, spiritual experience and theological exchange. These forms of dialogue, good in and of themselves, deepen our understanding of one another and cultivate respect for diverse religious heritages as we journey together in and toward truth.” ~ From the Paulist Mission Statement
