The Good News Gang

We will be meeting in Room 110 of the Faith Formation Center.

Please join us to study about our church and its teachings.

Wednesday Mornings, 9:30am-11:30am
Room 107/109 in the SFFC

This group has been in existence for over 30 years.  Our gathering format is cooperative discussion and faith sharing, usually after watching an instructional DVD by Bible scholars on the topics of the relevant chapters which have been read ahead of time.  Within this format, we visit and enjoy fellowship, great discussions, and snacks and coffee.  This is also an opportunity to get to know and build lasting and supportive relationships with other women of our Seton faith community.  Whether a beginner to Scripture study or a seasoned student, all adult women of the parish are welcome to join us on this faith journey.

Tuesday Evening Scripture Study
Tuesdays 7:00pm-9:00pm, Simultaneously Room 101 and Zoom

We are a friendly group that enjoys studying the Bible and our Catholic faith. Our objective is to;

1. Understand the Bible in proper context in order to understand and grow in our faith as Catholic Christians. By using aids such as the Catechism and Catholic study Bibles, we seek to understand scripture in light of the living tradition of the church.
2. Provide and environment where we take this time of fellowship to encourage each other in our faith, and share our burdens with our brothers and sisters in Christ.

We strive to present the material in a way that someone with no prior Bible study experience can benefit, as well as persons with a detailed background in Bible studies and faith formation training.

We offer the added benefit of Zoom streaming the class live from our classroom in a way that all of the participants on Zoom can clearly see and communicate with every member in the live classroom.

We periodically meet for Dinners and other live events to get to know one another outside of class. It is also a good way of introducing spouses who are not in the class to get to know our class members.

Disciple’s Compass: Navigating Life through Faith
Lectio: Eucharist Discovering the Mass in the Bible
September 8, 2022- November 17, 2022
Thursday Night 7pm-9pm FFC Room: 107-109
 
Dig down to the biblical roots of the Eucharist, through its foreshadowing in the miraculous events of the Old Testament,
the Gospels, and Apostolic teaching.
"The Lamb of God," "The Bread of Life," "The Body and the Blood of Christ"... these are phrases we know from the Mass. But do we understand what they mean in the greater and deeper context of Scripture and Church teaching? We'll discover firsthand how Christ's Body and Blood are an integral and wondrous part of God's plan for our salvation.
Study Materials cost $24.95 plus tax and shipping.

Friday Women Women of Faith
Friday Mornings, 10:00am-11:45am
Room 230, SFFC
September 16th -October21st, 2022

A 5 week Ascension Press study with Dr. Ed Sri
The Mass is nothing short of amazing. Through it, we encounter God in the most intimate way possible as we hear him speak to us in the Liturgy of the Word and as we receive him Body and Blood, Soul and Divinity in the Holy Eucharist. The words, the gestures, and the rituals of the Mass are rich in meaning. 
Everything we say and do in the Liturgy is steeped in biblical language. A Biblical Walk Through the Mass explores the extraordinary biblical roots of the Liturgy and reveals what it all means and why it all matters. This fascinating tour of the Mass will renew your faith and deepen your love for and devotion to the Holy Eucharist.
