Areopagus

    Hello, Everyone!
          The past two months' meetings, held at the Kray's house and the Rectory respectively, were very enjoyable.  Many thanks to the Kray family and Father Ward for hosting us!  We began each meeting by watching a clip from the movie, The Demographic Winter, then discussed the content presented in the clips.  After this, we moved on to the questions, comments, trivial matters, and good jokes, which included:

•  How can one keep bad things (thoughts, images, etc.) from popping into their mind?
• Someone made the statement that "the world was much worse back then than it is now". How should I answer?
• What is the correct response to have when untrue, scandalous gossip is spoken about oneself?  What about when it's spoken in ones presence?
• When you go to confession and you remember a sin and you're done and out of confession, will the sin be forgiven?  Or should you go back in line and confess it?
• Say you are going to a movie that you know has bad images in it, could you still go?
• Is it okay to have a baby's Baptism at someone's home if you still have a priest conduct it?
• What are the dangers of looking for boys on the Internet?

            This month's meeting will be held tomorrow, August 21st, at seven p.m. at the Ellis home.  Please bring a delicious snack to pass and plenty of questions for us to discuss!

                          In Christ,
                               Evelyn
