Food for thought about being a young Catholic today is on the menu at a conference celebrating the Catholic faith to be held in Strathfield on Saturday March 29.

It will be at the Australian Catholic University’s Strathfield campus and St Patrick’s College hall, Strathfield.

Bishop David Cremin, auxiliary bishop of Sydney, will open the day-long smorgasbord of speakers, including priests and lay people.

Topics will include Who do you say I am? Contemporary views on Jesus by Missionary of the Sacred Heart priest Fr Keith Comer and The Blessed Trinity for families by Fr John Flader, director of the Catholic Adult Education Centre.

Fr Paul Stenhouse, editor of Annals magazine, will share some thoughts about being a Catholic in today’s world.

The conference is organised by the NSW Knights of the Southern Cross, Catholic Women’s League NSW, the St Vincent de Paul Society and the Legion of Mary.

Registration is in the college hall from 10-10.30am.

Admission is free.
