Presentation Ministries FOUNDER,        FATHER AL LAUER

In establishing Presentation Ministries Bible Institute, Father Al Lauer said the vision and goal of all Bible Institutes was “to equip the laity in discipleship through intensive and extensive exposure to the Word, the Bible.” This exposure was designed to prepare those attending these events to imitate Christ in His character and ministry by using their spiritual gifts to permeate the secular culture with the Gospel of Jesus Christ. Father Al’s legacy lives on through Presentation Ministries.

  KEYNOTE SPEAKER,      FATHER JONATHAN MEYER

    Father Jonathan Meyer will be our Keynote Speaker following our opening Mass Wednesday at 6:15pm.  Father Meyer was ordained a priest in 2003 for the Archdiocese of Indianapolis. After his ordination he served as the Director of Youth and Young Adult Ministry for the diocese. Father Meyer and Father John Hollowell are priests in solidum over seven churches (four total parishes) in Dearborn County, Indiana. He maintains a presence on the internet with weekly homilies and other teachings at All Saints We Are One.  From 2022–2024, Father Meyer served as a National Preacher for the National Eucharistic Revival.  He published his first book in 2026 entitled Stations of the Eucharist. In his spare time, he coaches Track and Cross Country; including at a local a public high school.

   “Blessed are the peacemakers; they shall be called children of God”   Matthew 9:5

THURSDAY, JULY 30th – Begins 9:30am.

_______ HIS DIVINE MERCY  There is no better way to learn how to reach our hurting world with God’s unfathomable Divine Mercy than by studying the writings of the “secretary of His mercy,” Saint Faustina Kowalska. In this focused and prayerful class, we will explore her Diary, Divine Mercy in My Soul, and discover how Jesus opens wide the door of His mercy and invites us to enter.
_______   LIFE IN THE SPIRIT (FIRST DAY) Is God calling you to a new depth in your relationship with Christ in the power of the Holy Spirit?  Is your thirst not satisfied? "Stir into flame the gift of God given to you when hands were laid on you." (2 Tim 1:6)  Come and renew your Baptismal and Confirmational graces.
______   PEACE BEYOND UNDERSTANDING THROUGH SUFFERING We all know someone who is struggling with suffering. But "Each man in his suffering can also become a sharer in the redemptive suffering of Christ" (Pope St. John Paul II). Through trust in Jesus and acceptance of the cross, peace beyond understanding can be found. Be encouraged and inspired by others who have walked this journey and know with Jesus we are never alone. 

FRIDAY, JULY 31th – Begins at 9:30am.


______   PERMEATING THE CULTURE FOR JESUS--PRACTICAL  EVANGELIZATION    Are you on the front lines for Christ?  The laity are called to discover or invent the means for permeating the culture with the gospel (see Catechism of the Catholic Church, 899). "Modern man listens more willingly to witnesses than to teachers" (St.Pope Paul VI). Come and be equipped with proven techniques to more effectively share the Gospel with all!
______   LIFE IN THE SPIRIT (SECOND DAY) See the Invitation and description above in First Day.

______   BECOMING WITNESSES OF UNIFYING PEACE   Longing for “peace that the world can’t give and the world can’t take away”? (Jn 14:27) Pope Leo XIV stated: “Only a peaceful heart can spread peace in the family,” and around the world.  This program will inspire you to breakdown barriers to dialogue, forgiveness, and healing which are essential for unifying peace.

SATURDAY, AUGUST 1st
– ATTENTON: Classes begin at 8am; Mass at 9:30am; Classes then resume.    

_____ HOME-BASED COMMUNITIES: CATALYST FOR GROWTH IN HOLINESS  Are you wanting a deeper relationship with God and help in growing in holiness? Come and learn about small Christian Communities which can foster this growth, while remaining firmly rooted in the local and universal Church. These communities are “a solid starting point for a new society based on a Civilization of Love” (Pope St. John Paul II). To grow in your faith and to love God and others more, Christian Community is essential.

______    SPIRITUAL WARFARE: THE BATTLE OVER MARRIAGE & FAMILY    Sister Lucia Dos Santos, visionary of the Fatima apparitions, stated: "The final battle between good and evil will be fought over marriage and the family." Without a doubt, we are in the midst of this battle today. Demonic activity is on the rise, and our families are the primary target. There is no more important time to learn how to engage in spiritual warfare in order to protect your family.

_______ THE LEGACY OF SAINT FRANCIS    The “poor man of Assisi” left the Church a rich legacy of sons and daughters. Be inspired by the lives and witnesses of several of the Founders, Miracle Workers and Martyrs!
