info_outlineThis is the 2nd of 3 presentations given at a Parish Mission on February 22-24, 2015 at Cathedral of Christ the King in Superior, WI. We look at three areas in life to determine our spiritual fitness:
- Resources: the "stuff" in our lives
- People: how we relate to others
- Myself: Body, Mind, Heart, and Soul
Looking at these areas we ask three simple questions:
- What external measure can I use to evaluate my life?
- What patterns do I see?
- How does this help me be a better disciple of Christ?
As we determine our fitness, we call upon the Lord to guide our efforts as we continue on our journey of faith.
