Popular Pa Maria Winter Film Series continues in 2016

The Pa Maria Winter Film Series is running again in 2016.

Interest in the 2016 series follows the heavy demand in 2015; the inaugural year.

The 2016 theme looks at the stories of our personal lives.

Pa Maria Director, Fr Brian Cummings, says this year’s series will focus on stories that shape our lives, our responses to life and our expectations about life.

“They come from our own experience, from our families from society and time we live in.

“The stories also come from the way God sees, knows and loves us”, he said.

He says the stories of our lives are supported and reinforced by God’s story for us, however he points out that sometimes the stories conflict.

“By reflecting on these stories we come to a deeper understanding of ourselves and of how God is with us throughout our life’s journey”, says Brian Cummings.

Only a few places remain in the 2016 August series; the 2016 July series is fully booked.

The format for the evening involves

  • input
  • viewing a movie
  • reflection material for personal use over the coming week.

Dates for the Pa Maria Winter Film series are: August 15, 22, 29, September 5 and 12.

The Venue is Pa Maria Marist Spirituality Centre, 78 Hobson Street, Thorndon, Wellington.

There is no charge for attending, although Koha is accepted.
