LIS Speaker Series: Desire as an Avenue to Mystery: Mental Illness, Stigma, and Healing Presented by Fr. Patrick Howell, S.J.

The stigma of mental illness still plagues our society. Faith communities can play a major role overcoming these fears. Together as a community, we can explore God’s healing graces poured out through the Scriptures and compassionate care. All of us are on a spiritual journey together. Some are called to journey with and through their illness to encounter the Mystery of the divine.

Fr. Pat Howell, S.J., well-known to LIS participants, will speak on his own experience of a psychosis and offer a Spirit guide through these dark, but grace-filled, times.

Q&A will follow his presentation.
