Please register online for the October 13th breakfast with Gene Fadness.  The breakfast begins, as always, at 7 am. at the Silver Legacy in downtown Reno.  Doors open at 6:30 am. with coffee and chat.

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.
