the simple seven challenge

“The Christian ideal has not been tried and found wanting. It has been found difficult; and left untried.” - G.K. Chesterton

Try out the Catholic Faith - mind and heart - learning and practice.

The Simple Seven Challenge includes the following...

• An in-person introduction meeting (St. Joseph Hall after the 5PM Mass), after which you may opt in or out.
• If you opt in, you commit to seven weeks that include one lesson a week. This lesson can be taken in person or online. In person lessons will take place on Sundays after the 5:00PM Mass (6:15-7:15PM). Online lessons may be completed anytime that week.
• In addition to the weekly lesson, each week a new Catholic challenge will be added. These challenges include the precepts of the Church as well as other bare minimum practices.
• Great for Non-practicing Catholics who need encouragment and support to come back to the practice of the Faith.
• Adult Catholics who are not confirmed may use the Simple Seven Challenge as preparation for the Sacrament of Confirmation.
