ENCOUNTER SERIES

Written By Nicole Zenner

ENCOUNTER SERIES

This is a series of conversations held seasonally during the Mass homily or via video that features speakers from across our parish family. We provide this opportunity to highlight the many ways in which our community members experience God working in their lives. We invite you to look and listen to the experiences from past speakers and join us this year as we share our encounters with God.

Preparing for Pentecost: Stories of the Holy Spirit Among Us

As we prepare to celebrate Pentecost, the birth of the church and the beginning of our story as the church, we come to celebrate the power of the Holy Spirit that in every "time and age" leads and directs our church. During the week before Pentecost, we will hear from parishioners sharing how they have seen the Holy Spirit at work. We hope that as you read these stories, you will recognize your own call to active participation, discipleship and community here at Saint Clement.
