St. Matthew's Parish and Holy Cross Regional, 16079 88 Ave, Surrey, BC
8:30 am – Registration – lunch provided | Concludes @ 3:30 pm
Theme: Care for our Common Home
In his encyclical, Laudato Si, the Holy Father highlights how everything in our world is connected and ultimately points to God. This year’s Faith Development day will explore how the latest breakthrough in science ( quantum physics, near death experiences, and the Shroud of Turin) exemplify this connectedness.
