\"\"<\/p>\n

The year of faith is an opportunity for all of us to grow deeper. That means we have to take some initiative and go to presentations, attend studies, and go outside ourselves to learn about our beautiful faith.<\/p>\n

This weekend, the Diocese of Austin is blessed with two wonderful opportunities to attend presentations, retreats, and seminars from two of the best speakers in our country. The only unfortunate point is that they are happening at the same time in different locations, so you will have to make a decision. Either way, you will get a lot from it.<\/p>\n

If you can’t make it to either, spread the word and invite a friend.<\/p>\n
