Christmas Caroling!

Greetings,

Hopefully you all will be able to get through dead week alive and are ready for some caroling! We are going to be singing Christmas carols at the Veterans Home. Please meet at the church at 6:00PM tomorrow December 9th for rides if you are interested in going. Also if you have a car and are willing to give rides please meet at that time as well and email the CTL account so we can know how many seats we have.

Its been a great year sharing and discussing our faith and I hope to see all of you again next semester. To those who are graduating I hope that you will find success in whatever endeavor that you apply yourself towards.

God Bless,

Daniel Grum

No Meeting this Week and Site Update

Greetings,

Tomorrow, for the first time in over a year will not be Friday April 30, and there will be no picnic. Now I know that you guys will be disappointed after over a year of picnics but we unfortunately can't keep up with the demand. All joking aside as you can see the website is getting updated and will continue to be updated throughout the year. On this site you will be able to see any updates to when or where meetings will be held as well as the dates for any special events that we are planning. Throughout the year I will also be adding in some extra features such as the ability to download PDF's of our handouts as well as a forum area.

On another note since this Friday, October 7th, is the start of October break there will be no CTL meeting. The meetings will begin again on October 14th at 7pm. Location and topic have yet to be decided but more information will be posted at a later date.

End of Semester Mass + Picnic

Greetings,

Tomorrow, Friday April 30, we will be meeting at St. Tom's (either Newman Hall or the Main Church, look for signs on the doors) for Mass at 6 PM. Following Mass, we will head over to Pickett Park (Behind co-rec, near intramural fields) for a picnic (~6:45) and can join in a softball game. If you can't make Mass, join us for the picnic!

The end of the year is upon us! As we approach the dreaded finals week, let us come together one last time to end the semester with the greatest prayer our Church can offer, the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass! As the Catholic Truth League, we have come together to learn our faith AND to live it! Let us live it out in the Mass, receiving the Eucharist, the Body and Blood of our Lord, the very bread of life, nourishment for our souls, before we head out into the world.

Following Mass, we will head to Pickett Park at ~6:45 (Rain Location - St. Tom's Basement) for physical nourishment in the form of a picnic. We will be providing the burgers, the hot dogs, and the drinks! Feel free to bring any other item(s) you desire (we'll take on-the-go food as well!). Also, as we are at a park, let us have some park fun. We'll have a Frisbee and there will be a softball game (Catholics vs. Protestants) going on right next to us. Feel free to bring anything you'll want to throw, toss, or kick around.

The picnic will end whenever we are all tired out.

It's been a wonderful year and we hope to see you all there! Even if you couldn't regularly attend the meetings, feel free to join us for prayer, fun, and fellowship!

In Christ our risen Lord!

3/26 - End Times!

We hope you all had a blessed Spring Break and that classes have resumed well! We will be returning to our weekly meetings this Friday, Mar. 26th, in STEW 322 from 7 PM until 8:30 PM. This week, we will be taking a look at the end of the world! The End Times! 2012! Rapture! And so on! What will happen at the end of the world? What about the St. John's Revelation? Who is this Antichrist? We'll be tackling these issues tomorrow, so don't miss out.

Following the meeting, we will be going out for dinner. There will also be the Purdue Basketball Game where Duke will be seeing the end of their season. If St. Tom's will be showing the game, we will also hang out for that for all interest.

God bless

No Meeting - 2/26

The Catholic Truth League will not be meeting this week due to the "Into the Desert" Retreat going on from 2/26-2/28. We will resume meeting next Friday, 3/5, in Newman Hall at 7 PM.

God bless.

Purgatory

Morning!

We hope you all had a great time at Fr. Vince's presentation last week. To continue his topic somewhat, this week we will be looking at Purgatory! This means we will be discussing what Purgatory is, what are indulgences, and what exactly the 'harrowing of Hell' is. These are topics that are generally misunderstood or not understood at all, yet are very important in the Catholic Faith. We even mention the harrowing of Hell every week at Mass in the Creed. Do you know at what part? If not, come tomorrow and find out!

We will be meeting in STEW 202 on Friday, Feb 19, from 7 PM until 8:30 PM. Hope to see you all there!

In the love of Christ

Evil and Exorcism

Greetings Brothers and Sisters in Christ,

This Friday, Feb. 12th, the Catholic Truth League is proud to host Fr. Vince Lampert, the Exorcist of the Archdiocese of Indianapolis, to come speak on evil and exorcism from 7 PM until 8:30 PM in St. Thomas Aquinas Catholic Church. The event will be held in the main Church area.

Fr. Vince will draw on his own experiences to discuss evil and exorcism, things our society tend to ignore, unaware of how real they truly are. The 1st Letter of St. Peter warns us that the devil is "circling like a roaring lion, seeking someone to devour. Resist him, strong in faith" (1 Peter 5:8-9). To resist evil and truly grow in Christ, we must acknowledge that evil is a real presence in the world. However, we do not have to fear evil, for as our Lord Jesus Christ tells us, "In the world you will have trouble, but take courage, I have conquered the world" (John 16:33). We hope to see you all in this truly unique experience to grow in Christ.

This is a free event. All are welcome, so feel free to bring friends.

In the love of Christ

Charisms

Greetings!

The Purdue Catholic Truth League will be meeting Friday (Tonight, Jan. 29) in Stewart 218D from 7 PM until 8:30 PM to discuss charisms. This is an area that isn't that well known and definitely worth discussion.

Hope everyone can attend! Have a blessed weekend.

In Christ.

Call Out!

As we officially kick off this new semester, CTL will be holding it's Call Out this Friday, Jan. 22nd, in Newman Hall at St. Tom's from 7-8:30 PM. Newman Hall is in the basement of St. Tom's. Just go downstairs and turn left.

There will be a slight introduction to CTL, our mission, and our plans for this semester. Then, we will jump right into the concept of "Sola Scriptura", or the idea that the Bible is the only source and rule of faith. This is contrary to the Catholic view, as we look to both the Bible and tradition as co-ordinate sources of our faith. We'll be discussing the history of the Bible, who may interpret Scriptures and why we need someone to interpret Scriptures.

Following our meeting, we will remain in St. Tom's for Pizza and a Game Night! All our welcome! Bring friends!

God bless.
