Waymarks Program

The Waymarks Program is designed for groups and individuals as a way of renewing or deepening their journey of faith. The program consists of 20 reflections on the spiritual life which are all contained in the Waymarks book. The reflections are divided into 4 modules: Setting Out, Going Deeper, Healing Love, and Responding to God.

The following resources accompany the Waymarks book. Here you will find MP3 audio files of all reflections and a short 10-minute video of a conversation about each subject. The purpose of the videos is simply to act as a discussion starter for a group or a focus for reflecting on the topic. Simply expand the section below to view the corresponding audio and video.

If a group is going through the reflections the members might begin each meeting with a prayer, read the reflection or listen to the audio, and then watch the video together before discussing the topic in the group. A group or individual might choose to go through all 20 reflections sequentially, or may choose one or more modules, or even choose individual topics to discuss as seems most appropriate for the group at any given time.

Copies of the handbook are available at no charge at the church exits and at the parish office at 1514 E. Michigan Avenue, Lansing, MI 48912.
