That Man is You! is a men's fellowship and mentorship group in its second year here at Ascension Catholic Parish and we want you to attend so that you may be blessed! Every Saturday until April 12, from 7:15 am to 8:45 am, all men are invited to join this group dedicated to informing, strengthening and supporting one another in the Catholic faith. Breakfast comes first, then all-new video content and finally small group discussions. We have God-given responsibilities as men and Jesus wants us to be fully alive. TMIY can help.
To register, please go to Find a Group - Paradisus Dei
For further information, please contact Dan Penna at [email protected] or 403-993-1073.
