In just a few short weeks, we will begin another season of our morning Bible study. This year we are going to be reading St. Paul's Letter to the Galatians. And since this is one of Paul's shorter letters, we are going to supplement our discussions with a study of the US Catholic Catechism for Adults.
Our first meeting is scheduled for Thursday, September 16. We meet at St. Patrick's and begin our meetings promptly at 9:00AM. Most meetings last from 1 1/2-2 hours.
At our first meeting, we will cover the ground rules for our meetings, introduce one another to the group, and receive our class schedule for the year. It has also become our tradition to open the year with a discussion about a book that we have read over the summer. This year's selection is Archbishop Fulton Sheen's wonderful work, Life of Christ. We encourage all members to attend the first meeting, but the book discussion is optional.
If you would like to join us this fall, you will need the following materials:
Life Change: Galatians
Ignatius Catholic Study Bible: Galatians & Ephesians (only)Or
Ignatius Catholic Study Bible: The New Testament (Available in paperback, hardcover, or leather)
US Catholic Catechism for Adults
Optional:US Catholic Catechism Study Guide
These books may all be purchased on your own at Amazon or any other online provider or may be special ordered through St. Patrick's Book & Gift.
We hope that you'll consider joining us this year. Some of us are beginning our tenth year together, but we are always happy to welcome new members. See you in September.
