Y God - "Footy Fever: Australia's Real Religion"
Come along to St Paul's Parish Meeting Room (John St, Camden) for the next Y God where Fr Christian Fini OMI will lead a discussion focusing on the relationship between Christianity and the other pastime that seems to inspire so many devoted followers - football! Fr Christian hails from Victoria, so grew up drenched in an AFL culture but now proudly claims to be a sports atheist. This should prove to be a lively conversation.

For more information about these events please contact Loretta on 4253 0809, 0418 238 486 or email youth@dow.org.au.
