Keynote: Dr. Jonathan Reyes, Executive Director of the Department of Justice, Peace and Human Development for the United States Conference of Catholic Bishops

To bear witness to Christ, to be alight, requires that we are transformed more and more into his image.  As Paul says, “it is no longer I who live but Christ who lives in me.”  Thus being a light requires that we mature as disciples of Christ.  What accounts for this maturation?  How do we grow in our commitment to Christ so that we can be lights to the world?  Considering the lives of Peter and Paul and the teaching of various Saints we will look at the process of maturation in Christian discipleship and consider very practical ways to grow in our commitment to Christ.  We will also look at the ways we can share the love of Christ with others.
