Do you have questions about your faith? Are you looking to make God more relevant in your life?
Faith studies are small groups of students that meet once a week over the course of 6 weeks during the semester to learn about the Catholic faith using specially prepared study guides from CCO (Catholic Christian Outreach), called Discovery; Source; Growth, Obedience and Commission. Groups meet at the Newman Centre or on campus, and are scheduled depending on availability. They are open to Catholics and non-Catholics alike. Each study contains materials that reference Scripture verses from the Bible, the Catechism of the Catholic Church, and other Christian writings. The studies are intended to fuel discussion in a comfortable, small-group setting. They are led by a trained student guide.
Interested in doing a faith study this winter? Email faithstudiesmcgill@gmail.com (we’ll be super happy to hear from you!)
Come join us in watching this 2004 film interpretation of the Passion of Our Lord, on Good Friday – the day on which we commemorate this event. After the film, we will have a few moments to reflect on the Passion, and time for discussion.
Feel free to bring a friend! Let us remember His sacrifice together.
When? Friday, April 18th at 18h00
