"Paradigm for Gratitude and Generosity"
Our presenter this week, Father Augustine Joseph, Pastor of St. Augustine Parish in Oakland, is a former missionary priest. His talk is going to highlight the exceptional gratitude and generosity he experienced during his mission at the India-China border.
Father Augustine recently wrote a book “Mission Stories” about his missionary life in rural India. Bishop Michael Barber wrote a rave review about the book, in which he stated, "I read the book in one sitting and Father Augustine has a way of writing that is straightforward and puts you right in the place. You will see the exceptional generosity of people who share the best of what they have with the priest because he represents Christ, and also, their palpable poverty.”

and the Men of Faith as we continue our hero’s journey.
Perhaps you hear God’s call to a closer life with Him but you’re resisting.
Or, perhaps you don’t know how to answer.
What keeps you from saying yes and surrendering to a better life in Christ?
