Theology on Tap is a free summer speaker series for young adults, married and single. Talks occur in a casual environment with time for socializing, learning and sharing.

St. Vincent's will host a speaker series this year, so bring a blanket and the Church will bring free food and beer. Other local parishes are also hosting Theology on Tap series. Participants from all these series are invited to a final Celebration and Party on Sunday, August 10th, on the DePaul Quad. Note that a $12 ticket is required only for this final event.
