About "A Fresh Start"

​

WHC host parishes can easily access this six-part video series on a TV, laptop or tablet at weekly WHC sessions as a springboard for vibrant discussions. So will those unable to attend due to age, illness or distance. “A Fresh Start” is also a new resource for related ministries like OCIA. Practicing Catholics can view as a refresher of our faith’s essentials.

“A Fresh Start” also streams at no charge on YouTube to help even more inactive Catholics get back up to speed. Recorded at St. Patrick Parish in Lafayette, Louisiana, this series features Sunday Mass at St. Ignatius Parish in Mobile, Alabama and the very finest Biblical art including the work of Rembrandt, da Vinci and Caravaggio.
