For a long time now Luc and Marie Sokolowski have been running a weekly gathering to study Pope John Paul II’s theology of the body. The meetings are well attended by a wide range of people, and provide an in-depth look at a rich subject: the meaning of the human body, especially in light of the Incarnation of God as a human himself.

This study group is particularly important given the issues that face Catholics today: abortion, divorce, lack of response to vocations, homosexuality, research that is destructive of embryos, genetic engineering of human DNA… the list goes on. All of these issues, in one way or another, arise from failed answers to the question, “What is my body and what is its purpose?”

Join the group to hear a better answer, the true answer, one that points away from death and towards true Spirit-filled life given by the Father and lived in the light of the saving Gospel of Christ.

The group meets on Thursdays from 6:45PM to 8PM at St. Vincent De Paul Catholic Church in the Msgr. Jamail Family Center in room 208A, 6800 Buffalo Speedway, Houston, Texas 77025.
