Eight days of festivity ideas from the ERC.
Faith formation at your fingertips...
ACCW, the Archdiocesan Council of Catholic Women has created a twelve-part faith formation series based on Denise Bossert's book " Gifts of the Visitation". With Bossert's blessings we have written session guides, which include everything you need to reflect on the Twelve Gifts of Spiritual Friendship.
