Holy Conversations: Holy Conversations are a healthy process for all churches to engage in not only when they go through a transition in clergy, but also every 5-7 years for the purpose of revisiting and solidifying who they are and what God is calling them to be. Holy Family will hold two Holy Conversations facilitated by Diocesan Canon Giulianna Cappelletti Gray at 11:30 AM on Sundays, August 10th and 24th, which will cover three distinct topics. Two topics will be discussed on one day, and the final topic will be addressed on the other. Please join both sessions if you’re able! Each will last about an hour and 15 minutes (maximum). Childcare will be provided during the Holy Conversations, but not during the 10 AM worship service on those days. For more information, please contact Father Frank. frfrank@hfec.org
