Talks by Father Dan Reehil and Sue Brinkmann
Courageous faith is the kind of belief that acts boldly even when fear, uncertainty, or risk are present.
It shows up when a person:
-
Trusts deeply in what they believe to be true or right, even without guarantees
-
Moves forward despite fear, doubt, or opposition
-
Stands firm in values when it would be easier to compromise
-
Takes action, not just holding belief inwardly but living it out publicly
Courageous faith is believing that meaning, purpose, or divine guidance exists beyond what can be immediately seen or proven. It is faith with resolve—quiet or bold—that keeps moving forward when the path is unclear.
Don't miss hearing from Father Dan and Sue about their Courageous Faith!

Eucharistic Adoration
Jesus awaits you in this sacrament of love. Meet Him in adoration.
Susan Brinkmann
The Battle for Women's Soul: The Feminine Genius vs Radical Feminism
Susan’s talk will expose the occult roots of radical feminism, it’s links to spiritualism, witchcraft, Marxism, and goddess worship that has led to an unprecedented age of confusion among women. This presentation will address the false forms of empowerment that are leading women to despair instead of hope, and how she learned, through her own experience, that only authentic femininity produces the kind of genius that can infuse the world with the Truth it so desperately needs.
