Bible Study

NEW STUDY STARTS MONDAY OCTOBER 3RD!

WHEN YOU PRAY:
A Clear Path to a Deeper Relationship with God
You know prayer is important but still find it challenging. Perhaps it’s hard to find time, or you’re unsure what to do when you pray. Or maybe you feel discouraged by your weaknesses and your inability to overcome them.
If you have any of these feelings, you are not alone. Many of the saints struggled in prayer. They were like us. But each time they fell, they got up again and learned to rely more on God’s grace.
What God did in the lives of countless saints, he wants to do in the lives of ordinary people like us. And that’s what this study is about: the journey of prayer God wants to take us on…
Join us on Mondays for this 7 weeks study of prayer! Starts Monday October 30th – chose 10:30am OR 7:30pm. Register at the back of the church $50 cover cost of workbook & handbook. Hope you join us!
What We Believe: The Beauty of the Catholic Church.
What is the Catholic Church all about? What does it mean to be Catholic? What do Catholics actually believe? 
The Catholic Church is extraordinary. Founded by Christ himself, the Catholic Church is where we encounter God in his Word, his sacraments, and his saints. The Church faithfully proclaims the fullness of faith, leaving no truth out. It proclaims the fullness of life, leaving no person out. It calls all to repent and to believe in God the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit, the source of all life and salvation.
Maybe you’ve been Catholic your entire life. Maybe you’re just beginning to explore the Catholic Faith. Wherever you may be in your journey, you will be profoundly moved by the beauty and the richness of the Catholic Church. Join us on Mondays!

Starts on October 24, 2022.

PHILIPPIANS

Life In Christ

Learn what it means to have the mind of Christ…With his words and the example of his life, Paul exhorts the Philippians to have the mind of Christ, to live a life worthy of the Gospel, and, by God’s grace, to gain Christ. 
Toward the end of his life, under arrest and awaiting trial in Rome, Saint Paul writes a short but powerful letter to the Philippians. Paul’s affection for the Christian community at Philippi is apparent from his opening words. The Philippians were not only Paul’s sons and daughters in the Faith but also his partners in sharing the Gospel of Jesus Christ.

~ PRAYER - Finding Intimacy with God

IF YOU WOULD LIKE TO DO THIS BIBLE STUDY ON YOUR OWN OR WITH FRIENDS AND FAMILY PLEASE FOLLOW THE INSTRUCTIONS BELOW. 

Dr. Gray masterfully uses the ancient Church’s tradition of lectio divina to show you the simple steps for making prayer an effort of love and intimacy with God, opening our hearts and minds to scripture as the means to hear God and respond in conversation, basking in his presence and resolving to live in and through his love.
