You're Invited to Discovering Christ at St. Anne Parish!
Dear Friends and Neighbors,
We are excited to announce the kickoff of Discovering Christ, a transformative seven-week series designed to deepen faith, foster community, and welcome everyone—regardless of your background or beliefs. Starting on Wednesday, October 1st, we invite you to join us for an enriching journey that promises to introduce you to Christ or bring you closer to Him and to one another.
Discovering Christ is more than just a program; it’s an opportunity to explore the heart of faith in a welcoming and supportive environment. Each week, we will gather to share a meal, engage in thought-provoking discussions, and experience inspiring teachings that will help us grow in our understanding of Jesus— with His Passion, Death, Resurrection, and Ascension into heaven. Whether you are curious about Christianity, seeking answers, or simply looking to learn more about faith in general, this series is for you!
What to Expect:
Weekly Gatherings: Join us every Wednesday evening for a delicious meal and fellowship. Each session will include a video presentation followed by small group discussions, allowing you to share your thoughts and experiences in a safe space.
Community Building: Get to know fellow participants and parishioners in a way you never thought possible! This series is a wonderful opportunity to connect with others, fostering friendships and support as we explore faith together.
Guided by the Holy Spirit: We believe that the Holy Spirit is at work in our lives, guiding us toward a deeper understanding of love and grace. Through prayer and reflection, we will open our hearts to transformative experiences.
Details:

ChristLife Ministries
St. Anne Parish, Chicopee
Jesus calls us to be missionary disciples and to carry out The Great Commission to “make disciples of all nations.” At St Anne Parish, we believe that the ChristLife experience is the best answer to the Church’s call to parish evangelization and outreach. The ChristLife experience is a relational way to become missionary disciples who discover, follow, and share Jesus Christ.
Discovering Christ is a seven-week experience where we are all [baptized and unbaptized] invited to hear the Good News and personally encounter Jesus Christ, experience the love of God the Father, and be empowered by the Holy Spirit to live as God’s children.
Discovering Christ consists of seven weekly sessions and a retreat day. At each weekly session we share a meal, prayer time, a video teaching, and small group discussion.
October 1 to November 19
Mini-Retreat Day: November 8, 2025, 9:00 am to 4:00 pm
St. Anne Parish Hall, 30 College Street, Chicopee
