It is a generally accepted belief that God, because He is a Spirit, cannot be seen by people.  Yet, one of the Doctors of our Church says that because God cannot be seen, He allows Himself to be seen, and through that sight, He gives life.  Is this a contradiction?  Can you see God?  Are you dead without seeing Him?  To answer these questions, the Parish is having a series of mini-workshops/retreats on August 7, 14, 21 from 10-12 and August 28th time TBD. Registration is open and you can register on our website in the News & Events Tab, in the Atrium of the Parish Life Center or call the Parish Office. We hope you can join us!
