General Announcements

Benedict Inn course focuses on Catholic identity

Are you Catholic and don’t know what you believe?

A new four-part Catholic identity and doctrine series presented by the Benedict Inn Retreat and Conference Center, 1402 Southern Ave., in Beech Grove offers important answers for your faith journey.

Four monthly refresher sessions on Tuesday nights from August through November will examine eucharistic devotion, the eucharistic liturgy, the sacrament of reconciliation and God’s promises related in Scripture.

The informative classes are scheduled from 6:30 p.m. to 9 p.m. on Aug. 18, Sept. 22, Oct. 20 and Nov. 17.

Topics and presenters are:

  • “Devotion to the Eucharist Outside the Mass,” presented by Benedictine Father Matthias Neuman on Aug. 18, focuses on greater devotion to Christ’s real presence in the Eucharist as well as Benediction, Exposition of the Blessed Sacrament, the eucharistic procession, Forty Hours prayers and visits to the reserved Eucharist.
  • “The Holy Sacrifice of the Mass,” presented by Benedictine Sister Mildred Wannemuehler on Sept. 22, addresses the depth of the eucharistic celebration and God’s call to greater devotion through participation in Mass.
  • “The Power of Reconciliation,” presented by Father Glenn O’Connor on Oct. 20, reviews the history of reconciliation in the Church, and how God’s gift of the sacrament of penance has a healing effect in our lives.
  • “Exploring the Covenant in Scripture,” presented by Benedictine Sister Susan Marie Lindstrom on Nov. 17, provides a journey through the Old Testament to become reacquainted with God’s covenant promise to his people.

(Sessions are $25 per person or $20 per person with a friend. For more information or to register, call the Benedict Inn at 317-788-7581 or send an e-mail to benedictinn@benedictinn.org.)
