On October 9, Bishop John McDermott was the guest speaker at a special edition of Faith Ascending. With record turnout requiring movement from Faith Ascending’s usual location to a larger venue at Goodwater Brewery in Williston, Bishop McDermott’s talk focused on prayer and interior life, particularly how to cultivate prayer in daily life and maintain one’s spiritual health in difficult or hectic times.

Faith Ascending is a monthly series of lectures over dinner and drinks by speakers from across the diocese and beyond, geared towards area young adults. Those interested in attending future Faith Ascending events are encouraged to check our events calendar and social media for further details.
