Parenting Talks: "Is it Outdated?" How Theology of the Body Answers Modern Ideologies
Purpose: The Parenting Talks at Christ the King are designed to help you raise Catholic kids in a modern world. You are not alone in the important task of raising your children! We are a Church community and we are here to support one another!
Theme: This year, our 4-part Parenting Talk Series is on Theology of the Body. These talks will help you understand how to teach Theology of the Body related topics to your children, based on their age.
Speaker: We are thrilled to host Monica Ashour as our Speaker. Monica is the founder and President of TOBET, a prophetic organization dedicated to promoting God’s design for the human person through our bodies. TOBET is a fantastic resource that is right in our backyard (Irving!).

Unique Features of this Event
TWO talks in ONE Evening: Why? The 1st 45 minute talk is dedicated to parents of littles through elementary school-aged children. The 2nd is dedicated to parents of middle and high school-aged children. As these age groups are parented very differently, the talks will be tailored to the specific age group. If you have a child in both categories, please feel free to attend both. The speaker will be attentive to minimize repetitive content.
Childcare: We have heard you! Many have noted that providing childcare during events would make them more accessible for parents and families. All childcare will take place in the school cafeteria, enter through the Parish Center.
Dinner: Going out on a weeknight can be tough. We’re hoping that providing dinner makes it easier for you. Dinner is available to all and will run from 5:30pm until the conclusion of the event.
