These studies are aimed to help get started in Bible study. The focus is to learn more about Scripture from each other and through books, videos and audio recordings. Various studies and discussions are organized throughout the year. All adults either from our parish or friends from other parishes are welcome. Any high school student who has completed confirmation is also invited to attend with or without parents. We have had all levels of background in Bible study and the group has benefited from a diversity of backgrounds and knowledge.
Check out our Lighthouse Catholic Media (LCM) racks in the church Narthex for books and other media that can help you deepen your understanding and love for our Catholic faith.
The display is stocked with a variety of media in English and Spanish, offering a wide range of topics related to our lives and our Catholic faith. They feature some of the most inspiring Catholic teachers and speakers--bishops, priests, deacons and eminent Catholic lay men and women. We ask for a donation of $5 for books, $4 for cds and dvds, $3 for children's books, $2 for booklets and $.50 for folded pamphlets. The donation requested is kept as low as possible just to cover cost and keep this ministry funded.
Saint Margaret Mary has also paid for a subscription to Formed.org. This amazing site includes various programs, movies, audio and e-books for all ages in both English and Spanish. The site is free to all parishioners.
