In October, we will discover how the Church tells time through the liturgical year, seasons, colors, saints, and feast days. In November, we will consider how the Church gives thanks through the Eucharist, gratitude, hospitality, and the sharing of God’s gifts.

Tuesday Bible Study: Fall 2026
2026-10-13 09:30 - 11:30, 2026-10-06 09:30 - 11:30
For generations, Christians have been fascinated by the glittering picture of Christ’s redemption of the cosmos laid out by the unknown author of the Letter to the Hebrews. Drawing extensively on the Old Testament, this early Christian address is liturgical, theological, cosmic, and practical all at once. This fall, our Tuesday Bible Study, “Heavenly Temple: The Letter to the Hebrews,” will discover afresh the challenge and richness of this letter and its enduring significance for disciples of Jesus Christ today.
Join us beginning August 18 at 9:30 a.m. in Graves Hall. The class includes a one-hour lecture followed by optional small group discussion.
Registration is open now on Realm so click here to sign up! There is no charge to attend, but we gladly accept a $10 donation to cover the cost of printing materials for this study. Questions? Contact Mthr. Barbara.
