The monthly First Friday gathering of men who relate how they connect their practical business and professional experiences with their commitment to live by their tenets of faith is on Friday, February 1, after the 6:30 a.m. Mass. Our speaker on February 1 is Fr. Lucas Laborde, a Blessed Sacrament resident priest from 2012 to 2014, who has been a member of the Saint John Society, a society of apostolic life dedicated to the new evangelization, since its inception in 2001. On Friday, Fr. Lucas discusses the promising and challenging field of evangelization and the formation process for seminarians. We hope you will join us at Mass and for our discussion to discover myriad ways our faith is tested and at work in the marketplace.
