Faith and Reason Workshop

Presentation on how to address mistruths about Science and God, with our youth and young adults!

November 16, 2020, Mercy High School, Middletown

Two sessions: 8:30-12:00 pm or 6:30-9:00pm

Mr. Robert Alderman is the regional director of Catholic education development for the northeastern United States. As a member of Fr. Spitzer’s staff, he will be presenting a new supplemental module series for teenagers and young adults called 7 Essentials.

  • This series is meant to augment existing religious education and confirmation programs.
  • This series focuses on the issues that are causing a growing number of young people to abandon religion.
  • This series has seven engaging PowerPoint presentations, with embedded videos and voice narration, totaling 14 hours of classroom material. They are entirely FREE.
  • The series is incredibly flexible, and is designed to educate today’s young Catholics, allowing them to recognize mistruths about the faith.
  • The presentation of modules is geared at the instructional level for middle school and high school students.

We hope you can join us for this informational presentation!
