Areopagus at the Rectory

Greetings Areopagites,
   
    We extend our thanks to Fr. Ward for hosting the fantastic July Areopagus!  If you were unable to come to this month’s meeting, or you just can’t remember that one fascinating topic we discussed, some of the questions are listed below.
Why did John the Baptist baptize?  Was this a “custom” of sorts before the Baptism of Christ?
Is it all right for people who are non-denominational to attend Catholic Mass once in a while?
When should one read the Confessions by St. Augustine?
Should you make the Sign of the Cross during the Glory Be?
What should be said about people who only go to Mass on Sundays?  Should we judge them to be less holy?
What was the language of Babel before God sent out all the people?
How can one refute the argument that Our Lady is not a virgin because Jesus was made “according to the flesh?”
What is the difference between wisdom, prudence, and common sense?
Do babies see heavenly spirits?
If we make it to Heaven, what will our status be with the angels?
Are guardian angels or any other angels male or female?
Can you hear your guardian angel?
   
 
  The August Areopagus will be held at the Long residence.  Their address is 7651 Church Rd., Imlay City.  Come with your questions, comments, concerns, and a treat to share.
In Christ,
Lois Gagnon
