NEW BIBLE STUDY – There will be a meeting of those interested in participating in the scripture study groups on Wednesday evening, January 4 in the Social Hall. 7:00pm (refreshments, socializing) 7:30 to 8:45pm (meeting).
At this meeting we will distribute the books ($10); discuss location, frequency, and time of meetings; begin forming groups; and gather any ideas or input you may have regarding the sessions. As we have said, our goal is to have enough groups so that everyone can find a meeting time and day and a frequency that fits their schedule, whether weekends, weekday evenings, weekday mornings,
etc. Please mark your calendar now! If you cannot attend the meeting and definitely want to participate, please contact Marcia Grondin at: marciaryan918@gmail.com. If you want to pick up a copy of the book in advance you can get it at the rectory.
