Welcome! Bible study is a wonderful way to grow in your faith, and make new friends in the parish. If you are not a member of our parish, you are very welcome to join our study.
Where and When: Bible Study meets on Tuesdays; there are 2 sessions and participants choose either the AM or PM session. The AM session begins at 9:10 am after the daily mass, and the evening session begins at 7:15 pm. Both sessions cover the same material and are held in Our Lady Queen of Peace Hall. There is no cost to the bible study, other than a book or workbook depending on the series we are currently studying.
Our Current Series: The Great Adventure Bible Study Timeline, by Ascension Press, featuring Jeff Cavins. Each session is approximately 75-90 minutes long. The first part of each session is begins with a video presentation, followed by discussion. This series has a workbook/study guide that accompanies it, and we go through the workbook questions and comments during the discussion.
This series covers the Old and New Testament, and explains the "salvation history story" by going through 14 books of the Bible, in chronological order, beginning with Genesis and ending with the Gospels. The study invites participants to understand the beautiful plan that God has had for his people from the beginning of creation, and how WE fit into that plan! The discussions are lively and heartfelt. You will be amazed at what you didn't know! You will discover God's heart, and the "economy" of God, how God speaks and interacts with his people, his "family plan".
Fall 2020: This series began last spring, but we invite anyone to come and join us at any point in time in the bible study. We will be holding review sessions for newcomers beginning Tuesday September 8, 2020 in the evening at 7:15 pm. The review is 3 weeks long, and will give an overview of the sessions already covered in this series. The regular bible study sessions for the AM session began on August 25th, and the PM sessions will begin on September 29th. Both will continue through fall until early December. We will be covering the Royal Kingdom of Israel and continue through the prophets and the gospels.
