The Kingship of Christ. It's right on today's topic. It's an evening to rediscover Christ the King as a source of freedom, truth and commitment.
Faith cannot be private. Faith is something that is open towards others, as John Paul II said. It is not an enclosure.

So, this evening with exceptional speakers to boost our faith and reignite the flame of the kingdom in our hearts.
