  • Learning to See: A Lenten Journey to Encounter Christ Among the Overlooked

    This Bible study explores Jesus’ care for the poor as a central part of the Gospel, not an optional add-on to Christian life. Grounded in key passages, the study invites participants to encounter Christ in the poor, examine their own attitudes toward wealth and compassion, and respond with concrete acts of discipleship. We will use Pope Leo's exhortation, Dilexi Te, as a supporting resource to help connect Jesus’ teaching with the Church’s mission.

  • The Real Grandmothers of Jesus

    Spend Advent with the women who made the way for the Messiah. In the messiness, abuse, grief, deception, and scandal of their lives, they set the way for the Birth of Christ.

    Who are Jesus’ grandmothers found in the genealogy of the Gospel of Matthew? Tamar, Rahab, Ruth, Bethsheba, and Mary.

    In this course, we will connect their humanity with ours and their joys and struggles with our own. Jesus is born into the beautiful messiness of his extended family for our sake.
