Religious Education
Adult Education Throughout the year St. Ignatius has different adult education opportunities some of them include:
The Great Adventure Bible Timeline: A narrative walk through salvation history. This study goes through the 14 narrative books of the Bible teaching those involved the big picture. It also will teach you how we are to read scripture by not losing the story. These studies meet in multiple small groups during the week.
Theology on Tap: A chance to meet with your fellow friends and parishioners off Church grounds, have a drink and learn more about the Catholic faith.
Marriage, a path to Holiness: A series designed for married couples to understand the love of God in their marriage.
If you are interested please contact Jessica Maddox for dates and groups, 445-6728
