The parish’s 2024 Lenten initiative, Plan A, videos were created to encourage a more devout prayer life and growth in the spiritual life.

EPISODE 1A
Intro to God's plan for our lives, "Plan A", including how prayer is essential for living a Christian life and spiritual growth.

EPISODE 1B

UNDERSTANDING OUR STORY: Our role in it and who the other players are.  This episode is meant to be a prayer primer, reality check, and motivation to approach prayer with more vigor.

EPISODE 2

THE LOGISTICS OF PRAYER: Episode 2 is an overview of the logistics of prayer, including the steps of Lectio Divina, and witness to the life-changing graces that flow from an active prayer life.

EPISODE 3

INTRODUCTION TO THE SPIRITUAL LIFE: Did you know that we are a part of a spiritual reality that we can grow and progress in, similar to our physical reality but with greater importance? Not only that, but the church has practical insight to offer on it! Father Peter joins the guys in discussion on the spiritual life, and in particular, a highlight of the three stages of it: the Purgative, Illuminative and Unitive Way.

EPISODE 4
ST. IGNATIUS' DISCERNMENT OF SPIRITS: Father Eric joins Taylor and Brian to discuss St. Ignatius' indispensable "Rules for Discernment of Spirits". Find out how St. Ignatius developed these rules and learn about rules 1 & 2 which explain how good and evil spirits can influence our everyday life. The best part is, you can immediately apply these rules to your own life to grow in holiness!

EPISODE 5
SPIRTITUAL DESOLATION & CONSOLATION: Ever feel like God is distant even though you are making an effort to be close to him in prayer? Do you have times of highs during prayer that you wish last forever? Father Eric is back to talk with the crew about these inevitable times of spiritual "desolation" and "consolation" using St. Ignatius' rules 3 & 4 for discernment of spirits, including why each happens and practical ways of navigating them.

EPISODE 6
FORTIFICATION ON THE PATH TO SAINTHOOD: So, you recognize the importance of prayer, of reaching maturity in your spiritual life, and are striving to implement changes to prioritize these things. But how do we make sure this isn't just a passing fad — more than a failed "resolution" that we're so used to making, in a world that will be against us every step of the way? Father Eric, Brian and Neil fill the couch and join Taylor as they discuss how to fortify spiritual practices on a path toward sainthood!
