Looking Ahead: Colosians and Philemon

http://www.thecatholicsteward.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/01/StPaulIcon_270-232x300.jpgIn 2013-2014, The Solid Grounds Bible Study will read St. Paul's Letter to the Colosians and Philemon. 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 12, 2013. This will mark the 13th 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 12 meeting, please:
1. Register for the class.  To register, please call the church and leave your contact information. There are no fees for the study apart from the cost of materials.

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 The Fulfillment of All Desire by Ralph Martin. This is not required, although it is highly recommended.

Update 7/17/13: Study Guide for The Fulfillment of All Desire discussion.

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!
