How have you been taught to think about the Church and your role as a lay Catholic?
Are there other ways to understand the Church that might be more complete - and more empowering?
What is the role of conscience in the life of a believer?
Are there spiritual practices that can be helpful for individual and communal discernment?
And how might our answers to these questions guide a faithful, effective, and empowered lay response to the issue of sexual abuse and leadership failures in the Catholic Church?
Awake Milwaukee invites you to explore these questions at a dynamic, interactive workshop presented by Dr. Conor Kelly of Marquette University's Theology Department.
