Lenten Bible Study: Gospel of John

For Lent this year, we will have a Zoom Bible Study Group. We think this will be a wonderful way to focus on the prayer part of the Lenten pillars of
prayer, fasting, and almsgiving.

We will study the Gospel of John, which we will hear often during the Lenten and Easter season. We will use the Gospel of John study materials published by Little Rock Scripture Study, which is recognized as a leader in assisting Catholic parishes encounter the Bible for over 40 years. A group from the parish used another Little Rock study guide during Advent and found it to be a great resource for understanding more of the Gospels we hear proclaimed at Sunday Mass.

We will be meeting on Zoom on Sunday evenings at 5 PM starting on February 21. Each session will be approximately 1 hour long. Please note that the book has 15 lessons and this series will extend past Lent.

We’ll provide you with the study guide and ask you to read the relevant portions beforehand, look over the questions in the text, and then we’ll use the questions as a guide to our weekly discussions. In order to help defray the cost of the materials, please contribute $5 toward the purchase of the study guides, which will be yours to keep.

Please reach out to Kerin Coughlin, Mike McGowan, or the rectory if you have any questions. You can sign up for the Lenten Bible Study group below.
