Living and Leading in God's Word
Alums of the Hartford Catholic Biblical School have been leading Bible studies at St. Joseph in Poquonock for 16 years straight! Diane Caron and Peggy Nolan began leading Bible studies at St. Joseph in 1999, when Diane--a member of the Biblical School's "Pioneer" Class--graduated from CBS and Peggy was in her final CBS year. More recently, Bill and Pat Minford, Class of 2009, also took a turn facilitating the group for a few years while Diane's mother was terminally ill.
"We are now extending invitations to the members of our recently linked parish, St. Gabriel," Peggy explains. The hope is that the two parishes will build stronger ties through Bible study.

Diane and Peggy recommend Little Rock Scripture Study for parish Bible study. So far they have worked with LRSS through most of the New Testament and the OT Books of Exodus & Genesis. "In September we are planning on studying the Gospel of Matthew to connect with the readings for Year A. The Little Rock series produces an excellent DVD to go with each lesson, and Fr. Vargo graciously purchases it for our class each year," says Peggy.
What's going on in Bible study in your parish? We love hearing how the gospel is spreading in every neighborhood of the Archdiocese!
