Our Study this Fall will focus on the beginnings of our Catholic worship. 
How did the Apostles celebrate and pray? 
What were the roots of their worship? 
How has the mass evolved in time?
Where do we see experiences of worship in the Old and New Testaments?
If you wonder, “why we do what we do,” join us for this 5-week series beginning in October.

The Bible invites us to explore God's word and reflect on how we might respond to it. To do this, we need guidance and the right tools for discovery.  We offer both in our 6-week series. 

We meet for three 6-week sessions throughout the year:  Fall, Winter, and Spring. Each session is 90 minutes long and includes reflection on the readings, questions for deeper understanding and time for discussion and reflection.  During each season, several different sections of the class are offered for convenience.  We meet in the evenings, mornings and afternoons.

Each six-week class:

Focuses on a specific area, theme, or book of the Bible

• Explains Scripture and suggests how it applies to everyday life
• Is faithful to Church teaching and is guided by the best of biblical scholarship
• Presents the insights of Church Fathers and later Saints
• Includes thought-provoking questions for group discussion and personal reflection. 

By reading Scripture, reflecting on its deeper meanings, and incorporating it into our daily life, we can grow not only in our understanding of God's Word, but also in our relationship with God. Any parishioners are most welcome to be a part of this life-changing experience.
