Ignorance of Scripture is ignorance of Christ.
St. Jerome
The Catholic Church makes it’s own the words of St. Jerome. Furthermore, it teaches that the Bible is the “soul of theology.” Because the study of Sacred Scripture makes our faith come alive, St. Peter Parish offers a broad range of Bible studies, urging parishioners and their friends to attend.
BIBLE STUDY MINISTRY MISSION STATEMENT
The goal of the Bible Study Ministry is to encounter the Word who is God in the Word of God, so that those who participate in our programs will surrender to Jesus with the profound conviction of totus tuus, that is, “totally yours.” Although our emphasis is on Sacred Scripture, explorations are also made into the Catechism of the Catholic Church and the history of the Church. The classes, seminars, conferences and retreats are directed to teens and adults of all ages. Any interested person is welcome regardless of their position in life’s journey.
