Bible Study groups are established during Advent and Lent each year for six-week sessions. Ministers are needed to facilitate and host these groups throughout the parish. Facilitators are given all material needed. The sessions concentrate on a certain book of the bible and review the scripture as it applies to life situation. More groups could be established if interest is shown emphasizing fundamental teachings of the Catholic faith, its sacraments and foundations. These groups could reach out to families as well as a MOM (Mothers in Ministry) Group. Facilitators would be asked to prepare sessions. However, no theological training is required, only a desire to grow in and share your faith. Contact the Office of Religious Education if interested.
