Have you ever asked yourself “What does God want me to do with my life?”  If you have, the Living Your Strengths program may help you answer that question. It is a faith based journey, based on scientific research, to identify and strengthen your God given talents and to develop the potential hidden deep within you.

“Believe in yourself! Have faith in your abilities! Without a humble but reasonable confidence in your own powers you cannot be successful or happy.”

-Norman Vincent Peale

Fulfill Your God-Given Destiny!

“LYS has enabled me to see things in a whole new light, from how I can best use my strengths to meet new challenges, to recognizing and encouraging others to develop their own relative strengths. My LYS experience helped me tremendously during a period of professional upheaval. The time I spent with my classmates and Father Bob was instrumental in showing me how to integrate and utilize my strengths personally, professionally, and spiritually. My husband is excited to sign up for the next session so that we can continue the LYS journey together.”

When you discover your talents, you begin to discover your calling. When you develop your talents into strengths and apply those strengths, you fulfill your calling.

To build your strengths + identify your talents + add knowledge = skills to serve God.
