God and the Great Outdoors

You might know someone who’s looking for spiritual fulfillment, but not in the Church. Instead, they try to find it in nature. They say they don’t need to go to a church to get close to God.

Well, they should meet Ashley Piche.

Ashley LOVES being outdoors (she’s really into snowboarding), and she’s a recent convert to the Catholic faith. She runs Creatio, a travel ministry that guides young people to deepen their faith through outdoor adventures and mission trips.

Ashley has some great insights about:

• How to connect with someone who has a relationship with “the universe” instead of God.
• Her not-so-typical point of entry into the Catholic faith.
• Why getting out in nature is crucial to the New Evangelization.

Warning: you might get the urge to throw down your phone and get outside when you listen to this episode!
