Adult Confirmation

Opportunities for adults to learn more about their Faith:

1. Sunday Morning Topics.

On Sunday mornings from 9:15 to 10:00 am (between the 8:00 and 10:15 Masses) there is a Christian formation session for adults dealing with topics of faith, ministry and morals. All parishioners, especially parents of children in Christian formation classes, are invited to attend. In the Fall, 2007, we will review a video series on the lands of the Bible. For more information, contact Deacon Bob Durel at 468-3600, ext 108 or bdurel@holyspiritvb.org

2. Tuesday Evening Scripture Studies.

Sessions begin at 7:00, following the evening liturgy. We are using the Little Rock Scripture Series from Liturgical Press for our organizing structure of this scripture study. All parishioners are invited to attend and participate in the discussion.
