They Cast Their Nets in Galilee: Faith Informing Life; Life Informing Faith Our baptism places us within a community, Jesus’ family of disciples.  How do we reveal this in our daily life?  How do we reveal this in our parish life? As we will reflect, through silence, guided meditation, conversation, the arts, and holding each other in prayer, on the gifts given and witness to hope and love, we open our lives to insight and inspiration, we deepen our connection to God and to each other.
