Save the date!

Night in Bethlehem will be on Saturday, December 8 from 6:00-6:30 PM. This is a prayerful reenactment of the Nativity and a beautiful way to begin the Season of Advent.

This is a safety and self-awareness program that is a requirement of Office of Safe Environment at the Archdiocese of Hartford in response to the safe environment mandate from the United States Conference of Catholic Bishops (USCCB).

The USCCB expects that all, "churches, schools, and youth organizations must ensure that children and youth who worship, study, or participate in activities sponsored by a parish can do so in the safest and most secure setting possible."

The curriculum incorporates small group discussion and a newscast that was recently filmed by IGNITE Youth Ministry. The Catholic faith is consistently incorporated throughout the night highlighting the power of prayer and the work of the Holy Spirit which we often credit as our conscious. Our newscast even covers the question, "Why doesn't God prevent someone from using these lures?"
