Discover that God is not of this world yet lies within you. Overthrow the power of sin and usher in a new way of living. Become the leader your family, our Church and our world needs you to be!
10 top-notch speakers will lay the groundwork. You and your small group - your band of brothers for the journey - will take it from there.
Together, you can discover the greatest treasure of the human heart and allow it to permeate every facet of your life! We begin with our own Mark Hartfiel to launch us off!
We begin our journey discussing what it means to be a Light Among Men. The light shines in the darkness, and the darkness has not, and will not, overcome it. Mark walks us through scripture as well as practical ways that we can illuminate the darkness within our society and families with the Light of Christ.
Join us on this journey as we discover what it means to be the Light of Men! Don’t forget to invite a friend! We look forward to seeing you for The Light of Men!
God Bless,
St Pius TMIY Core Team
