Adults

Education in the faith is a lifelong journey that ebbs and flows. Opportunities for community fellowship, small groups, and individual self-reflection are offered throughout the year. We offer several Bible Study groups, a Book Club, several intergenerational groups, and numerous resources.

Monday evenings at 7:00 p.m. in the Parish Center

Beginning September 12th, we will kick off the year with a free short two-session study by Steve Ray. We will witness God's power demonstrated through Elijah and Elisha, the conscience of the kingdom, as they confront the powers arrayed against them, preparing the way for Christ.

Suggested contribution of $10 for workbook only or $20 for both book and workbook.

This study will help participants:

• Explain how Jesus fulfills the Old Testament
• Become equipped to share our faith concisely
• Grow deeper in their own relationship with Christ

Wednesday Mornings at 9:30 a.m. in the Convent

Beginning September 13th, we will begin an 11-week course on First Corinthians. We will learn about the early Christians in Corinth and see how their struggles and challenges were not so different from our own. We will see how St. Paul addressed these struggles by introducing the Corinthians to God’s greatest gift: the Eucharist. 

A suggested contribution of $20 is asked if you are able.

This book club meets the last Wednesday of every other month from 5:30–6:30 p.m. Every other month a new book is selected and discussed. New members are always welcome to join our
no-host discussion. Recommendations for books are always welcome. 

Our September read is The Center Will Hold by Christopher De Vinck. 

In this collection of heartwarming true stories, the author reminds us of life's many graces, and he challenges us to embrace our experiences with hope, humor, gratitude, and wonder. De Vinck takes his readers to scenes, sights, and sensations of the daily, ordinary gifts that are not so ordinary after all. 

Join us on September 28th at 5:30 p.m. in the Parish Center.

Copies are available at the parish office at a suggested donation of $10. 

See below for Jodie Clark's contact to join in the discussion, even if you don't finish the book.
