Gene Fadness Gene grew
up in Montana and became involved with Mormon friends, joining the LDS church at age 16. He attended Ricks College
in Rexburg, ID, completed his mission in Australia (where he was responsible for leading several young Catholics away from
their faith) and graduated from Brigham Young University. Just weeks before marrying the daughter of
a Mormon bishop, a late-night reading of the first chapter of the Gospel of St. John led to his dramatic conversion
to Jesus Christ as God; not a secondary god, but the "Word made flesh who dwelt among us". He has a strong concern for the many poorly catechized Catholics, especially young people,
who are being drawn into the Mormon church. Gene shares his testimony to educate people, especially here in the
west, about the very real differences between the LDS church and Catholicism. He has appeared on The Journey
Home on EWTN, and on Catholic Answers, Deep in Scripture and Living Faith radio programs. Gene will speak to us about his conversion into Mormonism, and from Mormonism to Catholicism,
a fascinating journey. He will also discuss with us how to understand the language and practices of Mormons and
their missionary craft. Gene will provide time to answer our questions after his talk. 
Dr. David W. Fagerberg Dr. Fagerberg is an associate professor in the Department of Theology at the University of Notre Dame.
As an adult convert to Catholicism, he has a deep appreciation for the Sacred Liturgy, and his work has explored how the Church's
lex credendi (law of belief) is grounded in the Church's lex orandi (law of prayer). David
holds a M.Div. from Luther Northwestern Seminary; an M.A. from St. John's University, Collegeville; an S.T.M. from Yale Divinity
School, and an M.A., M.Phil. and Ph.D. from Yale University. He has published on liturgy, sacraments and liturgical
theology. He is an academic with a devoted heart for the Catholic Church. He
will speak to us about Mary as Liturgical Person - a fascinating topic from a fascinating speaker.
