Looking Ahead: Philippians

In 2012-2013, the Solid Grounds Bible Study will read St. Paul's Letter to the Philippians. Meetings are scheduled on a (somewhat) bi-weekly basis on Thursday mornings from 9:00-11:00 at the Church of St. Patrick. Our first meeting will be held on September 27, 2012. This will mark the 12th year of our study, and while we still have a few charter members, we always welcome any new members who are interested in joining.

Prior to our September 27 meeting, please:
1. Register for the class.  To register, you can leave a comment on this site with contact information or call the church. There are no fees apart from the cost of materials.
2. It's become our tradition to read a book over the summer months and have a discussion about that book at our first meeting of the year. This summer we are reading Theology for Beginners by F.J. Sheed. This is not required, although it is highly recommended. There is a Study Guide available to print that has several questions you may wish to answer to help direct our discussion of the book.
3. Purchase the materials. On this website, just to the right of this copy, are links to Amazon for the materials that we use for our group. You are welcome to purchase them on your own, or we can special order them for you at St. Patrick's Book & Gift. In addition to the two books that we use for the Bible study, we also use the U.S. Catholic Catechism for Adults.

Any questions? Feel free to leave them in the comments section below, or contact the Church of St. Patrick.

Hope to see you in September!
