Welcome to a new year and a new series of courses at Anima Education in Melbourne, Victoria.
Our Term One course is “Face to Face with Jesus – in the Gospel of St John”. This course is designed with the Year of Faith in mind. Pope Benedict reminded us in his first Encyclical Deus Caritas Est that “being Christian is not the result of an ethical choice or a lofty idea, but the encounter with an event, a person”. John wrote his Gospel “so that you may believe that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God, and that by believing you may have life in his name” (Jn 20:31).
This will be an chance to encounter Jesus in our reflective reading of the Gospel of Saint John – a wonderful way to prepare for Easter during Lent too! Click here for full details.
Looking ahead to the rest of 2013, it is my intention to run a course in Term Two on reading the key documents of the Second Vatican Council, in line with the Holy Father’s encouragement that all the faithful familiarise themselves with these important documents for the life of our Church. Stay tuned for more information and dates.
Also, watch the Anima Education Webpage for further courses in parishes and regional centres during the year. Grow in your Faith in 2013, the Year of Faith, with Anima Education courses for adult Christians.
