    Theology of the Body Resources
    Catholic Diocese of Biloxi Pastoral Guidance on Ethical Religious Directives Concerning Gender and Sexuality

    "The body, in fact, and only the body is capable of making visible what is invisible: the spiritual and the divine." - Saint Pope John Paul II, Theology of the Body

    Courage Apostolate
    COURAGE is an apostolate for those experiencing same-sex attraction and have chosen to live a chaste life.  ENCOURAGE is an apostolate for those who love them.

    • "God made the world—and you—on purpose. What is that purpose? Well, that’s what St. John Paul II went to great lengths to explain in his Theology of the Body talks, which Fr. Mike sums up beautifully in this video. With profound simplicity, Fr. Mike—inspired by St. John Paul II—shares the fundamental truths of this ingenious vision of humanity and sexuality. Made in God’s image and likeness, you are your body, and you are made for love. What you do with your body matters. You’ll have to watch the video to get the last and most powerful point. It’s amazing."

      Ascension Presents
      Father Mike Schimtz
