SMALL GROUP BIBLE STUDY This Lent we will resume Bible Study using the Loyola Program, Six Weeks with the Bible. We will be reflecting on “John 1-10: I Am the Bread of Life.” There is a group that has been meeting on Wednesday evenings from 7:30—9:00 pm. If that time is not convenient for you or you want to start up your own group, we’ll help you get started. If you want to study this on your own, that option is also available. If you are interested, contact Burnie Thorp at [email protected] or 705-949-1724. Please register by Friday March 1. Each participant requires the book and they need to be ordered so no late registrations will be accepted. Cost is $12 (or what-ever you can afford). The Wednesday group will begin on March 13 and run until April 17.
