Book/Movie of the Month
Starting next month, this newsletter will contain a featured book and movie of the month. Please use this feature as inspiration for your small group or a reason to start a small group in your parish. Please send our office, bprasad@diojeffcity.org, suggestions for books or movies to include. Any reviews on the book would also be greatly appreciated. We hope to build a portal that you can search when looking for inspiration in the future.
Bright Ideas
Is your parish offering a ministry program or event you would like to share? We are working on building a portal of ideas for women working/volunteering in ministry to access. Please send us information on what is working in your parish. Email ministry ideas to bprasad@diojeffcity.org and help us build a portal that will inspire us all.
