ADULT BIBLE STUDY

Bible Study: We are an Easter People! The Fifty Most Important Days of the Year
​A Five Week Online Bible Study

Easter is not the end of Lent, but rather the beginning of the most important Season of the Church year, indeed of the entire Christian year. Without the Resurrection, as St. Paul tells us, "your faith is in vain" (1 Cor 15:14). In light of this revelation, the Church celebrates Easter for fifty days, until Pentecost. This Season is the longest Season in the liturgical year. The joy and significance of this nearly two-month season cannot be underestimated. With this in mind, our study will focus on the joy, meaning and mystery of this cornerstone of our faith. Join us as we learn to experience the happiness of the Resurrection and bring it into our daily lives.

All meetings will be held online via Zoom. The schedule is as follows:
  • Wednesdays beginning Wednesday April 21 at 2:00 PM & 3:00 PM 
  • Thursdays beginning Thursday April 22 at 5:00 PM, 6:00 PM, 7:00 PM & 8:00 PM
