Bible Study
every Tuesday at 7:30-8:30 am in the library
Long a tradition at St. John’s, this men’s Bible study has expanded to include women. Although the Rector is present, the discussion rises from genuine questions from the faithful participants. There is some time for prayer at the beginning and ending of each gathering. The study includes Old Testament and New Testament and the particular book of the Bible is chosen by mutual consent. Newcomers are welcome any time.
