ADULT CHRISTIAN FORMATION | 10 a.m. OUR STORY In Saint Michael Chapel This program year, many of our adults will continue their journey of formation by engaging in Our Story. If God’s Story, the Bible, represents the Scripture leg of the three legged stool of Anglican Faith, then Our Story represents the Tradition leg (the third leg, Reason, will be our focus the following year with My Story). CLASS FOR PARENTS (NEW OFFERING) In the Theater Parents of all ages are invited to join us each Sunday at 10 a.m. as we look at a relevant topic for parents such as: Social/ Emotional Development, Storytelling, Technology, Healthy and Holy Sexuality, Family Traditions that Shape Us, and many more.

Kathleen Flatley former U.S. Secret Service Agent
Did you imagine that bodyguards were always tall, muscular men like in a Hollywood movie? Kathleen Flatley can take down that stereotype—and anyone who threatens her clients—with a fresh perspective on her profession as a security agent and consultant. A 1976 Ursuline graduate, Kathleen spent 31 years in the Secret Service protecting everyone from former First Ladies Hillary Clinton and Michelle Obama to Pope John Paul II. Kathleen will share highlights of her impressive and fascinating career.
