Dear Brothers,
The summary below is submitted by Deacon Pat Wheadon from the Office of Sponsorship and Erica Duarte, National Coordinator for LIFE. My deepest gratitude to both of them for their careful discernment on a path forward for the LIFE Summer Program 2021.
LIFE Summer 2021
After collaborating with school leaders and moderators, and considering planning, travel and current virus restrictions still in place, and the uncertainty about when vaccinations will happen, especially in younger people, we have made the decision to offer an interactive, virtual LIFE program for summer 2021.
We will offer three live programs led by regional Coordinating Teams with the help of moderators at each of our Marianist schools. We will also be adding an intentional vocations component led by Bro. Mark Motz and Sr. Nicole Trahan.
Thank you for your continued prayers and support as we work to adapt the meaningful content of LIFE to an online format. Below are the adjusted dates for our summer 2021 programs.
LIFE Pacific
Moderators: June 17 and June 21-24, 2021
Students: June 21-24, 2021
LIFE Central
Moderators: July 12-16, 2021
Students: July 13-16, 2021
LIFE South

Please pray for the students, teachers, and formators who continue to adapt, change and do great work in the midst of this pandemic.

This week’s question is submitted by Mary Kenney. Two weeks ago, Bro. Ed Brink ruined her attempt to stump everyone. Will she succeed this week?
