Sharing of Graces

This weekend Veritatis Splendor Institute (VSI) students, presenters, and formation advisors gathered to end the year by sharing the graces they have received over their time in the VSI program. A couple of the diaconate candidates shared how they started VSI for their own benefit and then later felt called to the diaconate and entered into the process of formation that included another round of the full 3-year VSI Basic and Masters certifications. All present spoke about the variety of ways the Lord drew them closer to himself through the classes, retreats, formation small groups, and general community of Catholics participating from all over the diocese.

The goal of the institute — named for Pope St. John Paul II’s great encyclical, The Splendor of Truth—is to form disciples who engage in the work of evangelization, proclaiming the Gospel to all people.
