ALL CONNECTIONS PARTICIPANTS!!  Join Bishop Morlino and Catholics from all over the Madison diocese who participated in CONNECTIONS for an intimate Mass with the Bishop and a community reception to follow.

Your group was not operating by itself.  Hundreds of Catholics across the diocese were praying with you each week, studying the same topics as you studied, and probably echoing many of the insights about Christ that your group discussed.

Come hear highlights from others' experiences and spend some time with Bishop Morlino.

The Evangelical Catholic has been inviting and training small group facilitators from all over the diocese to launch CONNECTIONS small groups in their parishes this fall.  Beginning the week of 10/14, over 80 small groups will begin - evangelizing and connecting over 400 people to Christ, the Church, and each other.  They are using The EC's brand new materials, "Connection to Christ."

We had a great institute this April. Our beloved Cardinal Avery Dulles, as well as Monsigneur Swetland and a host of great presenters from home and around the country gathered to help us embrace the New Evangelization and carry the message of Christ to all. We've got lots of good stuff to share with you. Just check out the EC Institute 2007 link at the top for sound, video, pictures, powerpoints, handouts and more! Can't find what you're looking for? Keep checking back--we're adding things weekly.

And don't forget to mark the EC Institute 2008 on your calendar--April 4-6. Hope to see you there!
