This fourteen-week series, created by Fr. Dave Pivonka, President and Alumni of Franciscan University of Steubenville, will help you experience a deeper relationship with the Holy Spirit. Each session includes a short video, small group discussion, and time for reflection and prayer. The segments are independent and focus on different experiences of the Holy Spirit, so you do not need to attend each session although it is recommended that you attend the first three as they provide a type of foundation for the others. Our first meeting will be April 20th, Thursday, 7 pm in Holy Spirit cafeteria. Contact Joanna Crammond: 412 877-8133, [email protected] for more information and registration. Come experience the transforming power of God's love revealed by the Holy Spirit!
