Deacon Rick will be leading two book studies for November & December, 2026. Each study has morning and evening meeting options. Please see full details below:
1. Forming Intentional Disciples Deepen your faith. Transform our parish. Live as a Disciple. This book explores how each of us can foster authentic discipleship in our parish and our lives. In this book study, participants will read Forming Intentional Disciples and use the study guide in preparation for each session, and then come together to share thoughts, ideas, challenges, and opportunities. The study is perfect for parish leaders and ministry volunteers, anyone seeking a deeper understanding of their faith, and those who want to help others grow in relationship with Christ. Meetings will be held weekly on Wednesdays from Nov. 17 through Dec. 23, you may attend either at 10 am at St. John Neumann or 7 pm at Sacred Heart. Registration is $20. Register here
2. The Eight Doors of the Kingdom Prepare your hearts for the coming of our Savior this Advent by joining us for a book study on Fr. Jacques Philippe's "The Eight Doors of the Kingdom: Meditations on the Beatitudes."
