First Corinthians: The Church & Christian Community
How Do I Live as a Christian in a Pagan Culture?
St. Paul’s first letter to the Corinthians addresses many of the same issues we have today: scandals, promiscuity, debates, controversies, and prosperity versus poverty. The struggles faced by the early Christians in many ways are similar to our own. His message about divisions, immorality, persecution, and other trials, offers wisdom for our own times.
This eleven-part Bible study, First Corinthians: The Church and the Christian Community explores St. Paul’s advice for living an authentic Christian life in the midst of a pagan culture, and teaches us about the nature of grace, the Church as the body of Christ, and most importantly the Eucharist!

Jesus & The Eucharist Study
MISSION: To renew the Church by kindling a living relationship with Jesus Christ in the Holy Eucharist
Begins September 26th, 2023
You are invited to join our Jesus and the Eucharist Study during this Year of Parish Eucharistic Revival. The 7-session series will immerse you in the kerygmatic (Gospel) proclamation in Sessions 1–4, and unveil God’s saving work in the Eucharist in Sessions 5–7. Meets Tuesday 6:30-8:30pm (fall) & Friday 9:00-11:00am (spring).
The sessions open with an exhortation (teaching) from a different bishop followed by lectio divina prayer with Scripture. The main lesson is drawn from content created by the Augustine Institute, and will include personal testimonies from Catholics across the country. We will then move into small group discussion.
