BHI Class: Spiritual Life
Dates: April 16, 23, 30 & May 7
Time: 6:30pm
Register: www.MyBHI.org
Instructor: Scott McKellar
Place: St. Andrew’s School Rm 133
Description: Prayer is loving communication with the Divine, a raising of the heart and mind to
God. At the same time, it is divine guidance and bestowal of grace. Without speaking with God we
cannot know Him or love Him. In this course, you’ll learn the Catholic understanding of prayer and
the interior life. The course also models various approaches to Catholic prayer and explores the
various spiritualities of the Church.
Cost: BHI reduced the price of tuition to only $25 per course or $40/married couple! Students can save even more money if they want to prepay for the year of courses. It is $150/individual or $240/married couple. As always, if a student cannot afford a course they can request a scholarship, and we will not turn them away.

“May our Lord Jesus Christ, a most generous giver, reward you for
your labor. Avoid evil, cast danger aside. Though we are unworthy,
we and your brothers never cease to pray to God the Father and to
his Son Jesus Christ and also to the Virgin Mary that you may receive everything you need for your physical and spiritual wellbeing. I earnestly admonish you, therefore, my brothers, to look
a er your spiritual well-being with judicious concern. Death is certain; life is short, and vanishes like smoke.

Fix your minds, then, on the passion of our Lord Jesus Christ. Inflamed with love for us, he came down from heaven to redeem us.
For our sake, he endured every torment of body and soul and
shrank from no bodily pain. He himself gave us an example of perfect pa ence and love. We, then, are to be pa ent in adversity.”
