Here are 2 pics (the 2 sides of the room) of folks waving their Bibles!

It’s always a good idea to have students doing something so that they don’t think they are passively sitting back and being […]

Hosting a Bible Boot Camp
With the end of the catechetical year quickly approaching, you may be looking for ways to engage older children, youth, and adults in faith formation over the summer.
