E-mail Kathie for Zoom link to Bible study on Thursday

Bible study: Thursdays at noon


The Epistle of Paul to the Romans is considered to be the first writing of the Christian Bible. In it we see the importance of the epistles received by the early church. We will also do some exploration of "Lectio Divina," sacred reading. Having a notion of this ancient practice will deepen your Biblical reflections. 


Next book club discussion


Our next book club book will be There Will Be No Miracles by Casey Gerald. We will be meeting via Zoom on Thursday, March 2, from 7 - 8 p.m. See Mother Carol if you would like a copy of the book.
