CBS Alumnae/i Fall Course Registrations Due August 25

"The Passion Narratives in the Gospels"

A Bible study designed and taught by Dr. Thomas Casey for CBS alumnae/i

When? Wednesday evenings, 7:00-9:00 pm

Where? St. Peter Claver Parish Center, West Hartford, Wednesday evenings, 7:00-9:00 pm.

Grads who will be enrolling for the first time will meet for an introductory session on September 3, 2014. Returning students begin on Sept. 10.

Course Description: We will be studying the Passion Narratives of Mark, Matthew, Luke, and John from Jesus' arrest on the Mt. of Olives, through his trial and crucifixion, until his burial and the sealing of the tomb. Students will investigate the traditions behind these narratives, how they emerged, and what historical basis lies behind each tradition. The rich theology of each Gospel's interpretation of the events of the Passion will be central to our investigation. New CBS graduates are free to join the ongoing class. Cost $95 for ten weeks; make checks available to OREE. The registration form is available online at: http://www.orehartford.org/joomla2/

Sufficient enrollment is required for this class to move forward. Your registration fee will not be processed until minimum enrollment (15) is reached.
