This ministry hones in on the study of Scriptures and takes a deep dive into learning and discussing Bible passages.  This year, the ministry will continue its study of The Book of Acts written by Luke the Apostle.  The Acts of the Apostles, is the fifth book of the New Testament; it tells of the founding of the Christian Church and the spread of its message to the Roman Empire.

Sessions meet in-person on select Thursday mornings from 10:30 a.m. - 12:00 p.m. in the conference room and will also be offered simultaneously via Zoom.  No  preparation for the gatherings is required and everyone is welcome!  The Orthodox Study Bible, or Orthodox Study Bible app, is a good companion resource for this ministry.  Our first meeting will take place on Thursday, September 4, 2025.  See the full schedule below!

The group discussion will be led by Helen Theodoropoulos, PhD, MA (Doctor of Theology from University of Chicago and Masters from Holy Cross Greek Orthodox School of Theology). Helen is an Adjunct Professor at St. Sava Serbian Orthodox School of Theology.

A pen and notepad is recommended for note-taking.  For more information about this ministry and to be added to the email list in order to receive updates prior to each session, please contact Kathie Rutkowski at rutkowskik57@gmail.com.
