Responding to the Universal Church’s call for a “New Evangelization” and our local Bishop’s call to be On Mission for the Church Alive!, we are once again offering an intensive and formative Summer Institute in June. We have invited outstanding professors, writers, and artists to meet with teachers and catechists to talk through how best to infuse the schools and parishes with a Faith that speaks to all aspects of life and learning. In addition to the class time, partici- pants will share mass, meals, conversation, and cultural events. It will be three days of immersion in the rich culture of Catholicism. In this short but intense time, we hope to taste some of what Christ promised in John 10:10, where he promised that he came that they may have life, and have it abundantly
