Fr. Moloney is offering a class in the fundamentals of the Catholic faith on Sundays from 2:45-3:45 PM in the Small Dining Room of W11. For more info contact Fr. Moloney dmoloney at mit.edu.

Melchizedek Group for Priestly Vocations: Fr. Moloney will lead a discussion group about the nature of the priestly vocation and how to discern if God is calling you to the “order of Melchizedek” (Heb. 5:6, 7:17) using the book To Save a Thousand Souls. We meet on Mondays 5-6PM. Our Spring 2019 meetings begin tomorrow, February 25. To attend doesn’t mean that you are thinking about entering the seminary, or even that you’re not dating. It can simply mean that you’re interested in supporting others think about the priesthood.  If interested, contact Kyle James (kbcj2711 at mit.edu). Books are available from Father’s office in W11.

Women's Discernment Group for Religious Life: Tuesdays at 6PM. Do you think God might be calling you to religious life? Do you want to know more about the nature of religious life and the call to it? Father Moloney will be leading discussion centered on religious life and how to discern if God is calling us. If interested, contact Mariah Mullen mmullen at mit.edu. Copies of the book Discerning Religious Life are available in the office in W11-012
