Apologetics Returns on September 2

Maria Hayes • July 30, 2025

Often, as Catholics, we get asked questions about why we believe what we believe. People are searching for the truth, and sometimes this comes out as an argumentative question. As Catholic Christians, it is important that we know our faith, not only so we can defend it but also so that we can put it into practice in our daily lives. Join us on the first Tuesday of the month after Mass for Apologetics. We will dive into a “common question” topic, looking at Scripture and the Catechism.


Save the date: September 2, November 4, December 2, January 6, February 3, April 7, and May 5. Apologetics meets from 6:45 to 7:45 pm in the Cafeteria. No RSVP is required. Contact Kristina Seipel at the parish office or kseipel@holyfamilynewalbany.org with questions.


“There are not one hundred people in the United States who hate the Catholic Church, but there are millions who hate what they wrongly perceive the Catholic Church to be.” (Archbishop Fulton Sheen)
