On Wednesday, November 18, 2026, internationally acclaimed speaker Chris Stefanick is coming to St. Mary's for a dynamic, two-hour event that will renew your faith, reignite your joy, and give you practical tools to live the life God created you for.
Whether you're strong in your faith, struggling, or somewhere in between, REBOOT! is for you. Invite your family, friends, and especially those who have drifted away from the Church.
Chris Stefanick events sell out quickly, and this is his only Midwest stop. For more information, view the REBOOT video through this link:
