The long wait is finally over! There will be a brand new, in-person, Bible study taught by our Director of Catechetical Ministry Chris O’Donnell beginning in August onTHE FIRST LETTER OF SAINT PETER.

This new class will cover a lot of different material regarding our faith and is a great way to begin the new year. It will focus on the biblical teachings on spiritual growth, the role and meaning of conscience, the nature of angels and demons, how to deal with the attacks of non-Christians on your faith, the power of Christ’s Resurrection to help us overcome suffering, how to discern supernatural events, and understanding the Israelite basis for the Catholic faith. It’s gonna be great!!
 
As always there will be two choices for the same class:
 

• Mondays from 6:30 – 8:30 p.m., starting on Monday, August 16^th in rooms H & I upstairs in the parish center
• Wednesdays from 9:30 – 11:30 a.m., starting on Wednesday, August 18^th in rooms H & I upstairs in the parish center

 
There is no cost (a free will offering is taken up), no need to register, and anyone is welcome: so please bring a Bible and a friend! I can’t wait to see you all!
 
Looking forward to seeing everyone!
