This Lent we are reading Pope Francis' TERRIFIC book The Church of Mercy as a parish community. Here are some FAQ’s regarding this upcoming Lenten Opportunity….
When are book discussion small groups meeting?
We have over 25 small groups that are meeting at all different times, days of the week and locations to discuss the book beginning the week after Ash Weds; day, night, at church, in private homes or coffee shops. Our hope is that the variety of times/days/locations offered will help to accommodate all our parishioner’s varying and busy schedules. Thursday is our “drop-in” evening here at the church. No sign-up necessary. You can attend one or all five beginning Feb. 18th at 7PM.
Is there a “family group” option that would provide childcare?
One of our small groups is made up of 5 CTR families who meet weekly during Lent (Potluck style, with the kids) and they have a rule of thumb that says if 3 out of the 5 families can attend they run with it! Families are also very welcome to meet here at church and we would be happy to arrange for childcare.
How do I sign-up for a book discussion small group?
Email Gabriela at eduadmin@ctredeemer.org, or visit our website at www.ctredeemer.org or sign-up with a real pen and paper after Mass.
Where do I get a book?
We are selling the books for 60% off the Amazon price - 2 for $10 or 1 for $6 after Masses or in the parish office during business hours.
Do I have to read the entire book in advance?
No. We will read two sections in preparation for each of the 5 weeks.
