An Advent Scripture Study
Please join us for a five-part series on the story of Jesus of Nazareth as a child. At the root of these stories is the experience of hope found in the birth of Jesus and the affirmation of surrender and service embodied in his parents Mary and Joseph. This Advent Scripture study will be based on The Infancy Narratives: Jesus of Nazareth by Pope Benedict XVI. Participants may purchase the book either through a local bookstore or online.
