Most Blessed Sacrament Church is participating in the WHY CATHOLIC? program sponsored by the Diocese of Fort Worth. All members of our parish are invited and encouraged to join a small Christian Community to understand and deepen what it means to be Catholic. This is a great opportunity to "review" and "renew" our Catholic Faith. It is meant for all parishioners, high school age and adults of all ages, new to the Catholic Church as well as those "cradle Catholic" members and everyone in between.

Why Catholic? group meetings for the first six of 12 sessions started October 4, 2009. The Small Christian Communities gather once a week and will generally meet for six consecutive weeks. There will be an additional six meetings scheduled for the spring during Lent.

Below are previews of each session provided to us by Father Carmen Mele, O.P. , Director, School of Lay Ministry, Diocese of Fort Worth.
