We are in a weighty war for the minds, hearts and souls of every man, woman and child who will ever walk this creation.


At stake? Eternity.


The battlefield? Culture.

The good news is this:

together, we have the ability to transform the culture.


Join other lay Catholics from around Jacksonville for a half-day event full of the inspiration, encouragement and equipping to do just that.
