It was heartening to see that our vision for the entire Capital Campaign and our Pulte Family Life Center was clearly articulated by Pope Francis in his Exhortation Christus Vivit:
Along these lines, our institutions should provide young people with places they can make their own, where they can come and go freely, feel welcome and readily meet other young people, whether at times of difficulty and frustration, or of joy and celebration. Some of this is already happening in oratories and other youth centres, which in many cases offer a friendly and relaxed setting where friendships can grow, where young men and women can meet one another, where they can share music, games, sports, but also reflection and prayer. In such places, much can be offered, without great expenditure of funds. Then too, the person-to-person contact indispensable for passing on the message can happen, something whose place cannot be taken by any pastoral resource or strategy.
– Christus Vivit 218
We are excited to continue the expansion of programs for all ages in our Life Center. If you want to get a head start on some of your New Year’s Resolutions for the health of your body, mind, soul, and spirit, you can find our 2020 Pulte Family Life Center Membership Agreement on our website, at our Front Desk, and at the Life Center itself. This annual agreement has been updated to include the discounted price for those members of our Parish Family that gave to the Campaign (only $100 a year per family), as well as the standard rate for both our Parish ($150 a year per family) and others ($300 a year per family), which provides access to the facilities and our free programs, like Bocce, Mahjongg, Pick-Up Volleyball/Basketball, and Boot Camps. Additionally, there is an option for a single individual membership for $50 a year that provides access to only the activities. Special programs, like our CYO Sports, Music Classes, Fencing, Zumba, and the upcoming indoor Pickleball, have additional fees based on the activity. All participants must sign the Membership Agreement and will be provided a fob for access to the facility.
