Exciting Youth Event At Briarfest
Save the Date - September 12, 2015. That is when Gary Foote, an engaging, funny and relevant Catholic speaker will be at St. Gabriel for three youth sessions. The first will be from 11:30am - 1pm. It is entitled "The Word Became Flesh" and is geared to help altar servers develop a very personal encounter in the Eucharist. The second will be from 2-3:30pm and is entitled "Prodigal". This is geared toward the youth and teen group and helps them to learn to know the unconditional love of our Father and share it. The third will be from 4-5:30pm titled "Extreme Thirst" and is a Ydisciple Youth Event. Gary speaks to the truth that only God can quench the thirst that has been placed deep within us all. Before and after the free sessions with Gary Foote, enjoy the carnival rides, food and concerts at Briarfest 2015!
