Bible Studies Program
 

Each Monday morning, except for holidays, Father Adrian Staehler is leading a bible study class.

The session begins with Eucharist at 6:15 AM and is followed by a 45-60 minute group session of instruction and sharing of the scriptures.  You are invited to attend the Eucharist, or the study session, or both.

The Bible Study is a weekly bulletin that Father Adrian prepares for bible classes.  In each issue, he presents reflections upon biblical themes, outlines and discussion questions related to the text that we are reflecting upon.  You can read these on this web site (look below).

 


No registration is required.  Just come and be welcomed, especially by the God whose Word and Inspiration we thirst for.

Come and be nourished by God's Message!  Not only will you learn and gain insight from the explanations which Fr. Adrian offers, but you will experience inspiration and support from the participation and sharing of all those who come to drink from the Scriptures of Life.

All are welcome!
