Here’s what participants of Discovering Christ have said:
“It gave us a chance to back pedal and remember what’s really important in life.”
“I was very touched and lost all concept of time.”
“It renewed my desire to go to Mass again ... had a wonderful sense of community and positive energy.”
“I now understand why people need and want God in their life.”
