BIBLE STUDY - Sunday to Sunday


Please come join us in preparing for next Sunday's Mass.     We meet to learn about and discuss the Readings for the upcoming Sunday Liturgy.    Each week we watch a 20 minute video, stopping the tape at appropriate moments to discuss the material presented.   We enjoy lively conversation, faith sharing moments, and good Christian fellowship, as we learn more about the Bible and thereby enable ourselves to be more fully prepared to celebrate next Sunday's Mass.

When:   Tuesday mornings 9:00 to 10:00 a.m.
Where:  Room 7
No preparation!     No homework!

This week we will do the
"Third Sunday in Ordinary Time" (B)."    All are welcome!   Come prepare for next Sunday's Mass!   

For more information, please contact Linda Odre at

BIBLE STUDY - BOOK OF REVELATION
