Adult Bible StudyOur beginnings…
The idea of our own parish offering an official Catholic scripture study was a dream come true. We are very grateful to Fr. John Vien who initiated our adult bible study in September 2001. This was something our community yearned for and from the very start, it was well attended with eagerness and enthusiasm. One favorite thing we especially enjoyed was at the end of each class Fr. Vien would sit on the desk and hold an informal “Ask Me Anything” Q&A…how great is that?
The format remains the same as the very first day… Coffee, Praying, Studying, Sharing, Asking Questions and Fellowshipping with a bit of “homework” each session.
Now, under the guidance of Linda Doyle, our Director of Religious Education and Msgr. Jack Costello, our pastor, we are going strong, as each of us continues to receive this exceptional gift of deepening our faith and understanding of God’s Word and His great love for us.Today’s Catholic is encouraged to read the Bible and to make it a part of our daily prayer lives. By intentionally finding time to read God’s love letters to us, we grow deeper in our relationship with Him. Our Bible Studies are chosen from great Catholic websites such as Formed, Ascension Press, or Word On Fire. The programs are DVD presentations given by top Catholic scholars like Bishop Barron, Dr. Tim Gray, Dr. Brant Pitre, Dr. Edward Sri, Jeff Cavins, Sarah Christmyer and Thomas Smith. The programs run from September to May, with breaks in between for the holidays. Each course includes a workbook that will provide you with some additional background information and reflection questions for you to answer. The cost of the workbook ranges from $20.00 to $25.00.

Men's Group Bible Study
The purpose of the Men's Group is to reaffirm our belief and trust in God by interacting with men of the parish on a more personal level and by experiencing God in each other. Our faith is shared around questions like: What takes priority in my life? or How can I find God in my ordinary day-to-day struggles? All men of the parish are welcome to attend and participate.
