Deacon Conque and Kyle are excited to welcome back Ms. Emily Byers this week for the last part of a great conversation with Ms. Byers to discuss community, holiness, vocation, discernment, and education.
Quote from Pope St. John Paul the Great, Gaudium et spes
"The truth is that only in the mystery of the incarnate Word does the mystery of man take on light. For Adam, the first man, was a figure of Him Who was to come, namely Christ the Lord. Christ, the final Adam, by the revelation of the mystery of the Father and His love, fully reveals man to man himself and makes his supreme calling clear. It is not surprising, then, that in Him all the aforementioned truths find their root and attain their crown."
