E.P.I.C. Student Ministry Newsletter- Mar ‘11

God entering this world in human form, as Jesus Christ, is the most wonderful and profound mystery since the beginning of time. This past month, teachings during our E.P.I.C. student ministry sessions have focused on the reality and meaning of the Incarnation. We have wrestled with understanding Christ as the image of the invisible God, as the light of the world who shines through us, and as the eternal Word of God who lives in us. Thank God for revealing Himself to us through Christ! Here are some of the past month's E.P.I.C. ministry highlights:
