The Complete Introduction to the Devout Life by St. Francis De Sales
Written over 400 years ago, this book remains one of the most popular for laity responding to the Second Vatican Council’s universal call to holiness. Written as letters of spiritual direction to Philothea (i.e. lover of God), they are remarkably timeless in their practical application for all Christians today. Join us on Thursday nights beginning on November 30th at Precious Blood Church. All parishioners of all the churches are welcome. Led by Curtis Kneblik, Director of Adult Faith Formation for (Precious Blood, St. Rita, St. Paul), the sessions will consist of short presentations with most of the time devoted to reading and group discussion. RSVP’s are helpful for planning.

Precious Blood Companions
2024-03-10 13:00 - 14:00 | Precious Blood Church with Map, 4961 Salem Avenue, Dayton, OH, United States
Meets Monthly on Sunday, 1:00 pm
Precious Blood Companions are inspired by Precious Blood Spirituality and called to be in relationship with the Missionaries of the Precious Blood in order to form a community that seeks to give voice and presence to the power of the Precious Blood that draws all people near. The journey begins by attending a Precious Blood gathering to learn more about the history of the community and core values or charisms of St. Gaspar. What you may hear will resonate in your heart because you already exhibit some of these values. We meet once a month at Precious Blood Church. The first step is formation where you will learn more about what it means to be a Companion and about Precious Blood Spirituality. At the conclusion of formation, if you desire, you will present a written covenant with the community.Becoming a Companion is a wonderful way to strengthen your personal spirituality and to meet others who share that calling.
