It’s the top conversation at Vera Aqua Vera Vita’s largest annual fundraising event, “An Evening at a Speakeasy” on Oct. 5, 2019, at Saint Paul’s Parish Center in Richardson, Texas.

There is a ministry aspect to Vera Aqua Vera Vita’s work as well. The organization teaches the spiritual characteristics of water based on a Catholic teaching called Theology of the Body.
