BHI Class: Spiritual Life
Dates: April 16, 23, 30 & May 7 Time: 6:30pm Instructor: Scott McKellar Register: www.MyBHI.org Place: St. Andrew’s School Rm 133 Description: Prayer is loving communication with the Divine, a raising of the heart and mind to God. At the same time, it is divine guidance and bestowal of grace. Without speaking with God we cannot know Him or love Him. In this course, you’ll learn the Catholic understanding of prayer and the interior life. The course also models various approaches to Catholic prayer and explores the various spiritualities of the Church. Cost: BHI reduced the price of tuition to only $25 per course or $40/married couple! Students can save even more money if they want to pre- pay for the year of courses. It is $150/individual or $240/married couple. As always, if a student cannot afford a course they can request a schol- arship, and we will not turn them away. For more information, please visit MyBHI.org, email [email protected], or (816) 714-2331.
