Father in heaven, by whose grace the virgin mother of thy incarnate Son was blessed in bearing him, but still more blessed in keeping thy word: Grant us who honor the exaltation of her lowliness to follow the example of her devotion to thy will; through the same Jesus Christ our Lord, who liveth and reigneth with thee and the Holy Spirit, one God, for ever and ever. Amen.

1:00 p.m.-2:00 p.m. | Held Via Zoom

Fr. Schultz leads a series of Bible Study sessions that will serve as a deep dive into the Gospel of John. This weekly online study meets via Zoom at 1:00 p.m. on Fridays, lasts one hour, and is open to anyone who is interested. Bring your Bible, and a desire to know our Lord better.

As we journey through the richness of John’s language and imagery, we’ll be considering together a few questions: For whom is the Fourth Gospel written? What is this Gospel’s project or mission? Who is Jesus in the Fourth Gospel? What is the Gospel’s vision of the Church? What are the Gospel’s recurring images and themes?

Contact Fr Schultz for the Zoom link, and bring your questions, your curiosity and yourself to the rich spiritual feast that is John’s wondrous vision of light!
