Morning WOW (Wisdom of the Word) Study
Ever wondered about those ancient names like St Irenaeus, St. Augustine, or St. Jerome and who those men were? You know they helped shape our faith and our understanding of Sacred Scripture, but how? In The Bible and the Church Fathers, you’ll learn who the Early Church Fathers were and everything you need to know about how the Bible took form. You’ll learn powerful tools for reading it, and you’ll understand Scripture’s relationship to Tradition and to the Sacraments. Join Matthew Leonard as he leads you through the history of the early Church and the men who shaped it. As we announce this study, meeting in person will not be possible, so we will conduct our study remotely for Fall 2020. Instruction to access the study will be given once registered. Additionally, to allow those that want to attend Mass to be able to get home in time for the study to begin, we’ve changed the starting time to allow for travel.
When: Wednesdays, September 9 through December 2, 2020 Time: 9:30am – 11:30am
Cost: $28 payable in cash or check to SMOY
