This conversation will explore the Carmelite charism of co ntemplation\, community\, and service through the writings and witness of St Titus Brandsma\, who taught that "God dwells within us... and with us i n everything that surrounds us". We will discuss how in our own lives\, we can help others to "sense the Divine close-by" through our being a "pract itioner of virtuousness"\, and that even in this increasingly secular age\ , others can still "fall under the spell of this divine aura" if only "fai th and hope and love are put into practice".\n\nAbout the Facilitator: Dav id Tate is a husband\, father of three boys under six\, and a high school teacher specialising in Religious Education. He is a received Lay Carmelit e\, two years into his formation journey.\n\n \;\n\n \;\nNO NEED T O BOOK\n\nClick the link below to join the meeting.
