Facilitators lead various Bible studies throughout the year. Bible
studies are an important resource to learn more about the
Catholic faith alongside others. The Parish Office has Bible Study
programs that parishioners can use if they would like to lead
their own Bible study. Please call the front office to connect with
a Bible study.

Lent  Bible Study-St. Paul’s Letter to the Philippians

St. Paul’s Letter to the Philippians may be short, but it packs a powerful punch! Many may already be familiar with its popular verses such as “Rejoice in the Lord always” (Philippians 4:4) and “I can do all things in him who strengthens me” (Philippians 4:13). But other treasures of this epistle include the model it provides for working together in partnership to advance the Gospel, the beautiful relationship of mutual love that unites Paul and the church in Philippi and Paul’s great hymn to Christ in Philippians 2:6-11. T
