Bible Study
Matthew 4:4 “Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that proceeds from the mouth of God.”
The study of God’s word is very important to us. As Catholics we should never be afraid to read and study any book of the Bible, for it was the Catholic Church who compiled the very canon of Scripture, and only the Catholic Church can claim continuity of faith with the very same followers of God who wrote the books of the Bible. You are also welcome to be a part of one of our Scripture studies. For more information, please contact Norm Hayden.
Wednesday Evening Bible Study
Do you have a personal relationship with Jesus? Are you an intentional disciple of Jesus Christ? Is the Bible relevant in our lives today? Reading the Bible and spending time with Jesus is a great way to develop that relationship. What is the Catechism of the Catholic Church? If you have questions about your Catholic faith, then show up and ask them.
This weekly, open group will meet from 6 to 7 PM on Wednesdays, with an opportunity for adults and teenagers (with their parent/ guardian) to ask questions about their Catholic faith. We won't go into personal stories, but will start with the Gospel readings for the upcoming week and/or discuss topics on marriage, abortion, immigration, and anything else. We will meet in the St. John Bosco room inside the Parish Hall. All you need is your Bible and a Catechism of the Catholic Church, and we will run this program indefinitely. If you don't have a Bible/ Catechism, then we have one you can borrow.
