Theology of the Body Times Square

Our ToB Times Square discussion group will hold its final meeting this Wednesday, February 20th, at 7:00 pm at St. Malachy’s Church on West 49th Street.

I hope you will join us as we complete our discussion of John Paul II’s marvelous book, and take a fond look back over the ground we’ve covered these past three and a half years.

At our meeting this Wednesday, we will discuss:

Audience 133: Conclusion and review
Presented by Pope John Paul II on November 28, 1984

This reading can be found in the new translation — now known by Pope John Paul II’s original title for the work, “Man and Woman He Created Them” — on pages 659-663.

At the conclusion of this discussion, we will celebrate completing our reading of the Theology of the Body with a gathering at The Playwright Tavern, near St. Malachy’s.
