The lead will facilitate a patterned discussion based on “Searching For and Maintaining Peace” with an open model of contribution of ideas and reflections.
God is calling us together in faith to learn, to apply, to share the reality of the good news.
The discussion is an open design to consider many reflective questions including…
Does God really have an individual purpose for each of our lives?
How do we communicate with God?
Can prayer bring us the answers to our lives?
How does God’s will affect our lives?
Is it really possible to find peace and joy?
