Summer Study: “33 Days to Eucharistic Glory” ~ A Consecration to The Holy Eucharist
The Women’s Emmaus Scripture Study recently completed “33 Days to Eucharistic Glory,” a study of Consecration to the Holy Eucharist.
They met every Thursday for 6 weeks to discuss the daily readings, searching their hearts for a deeper trust in the Lord and the power of the Holy Eucharist.
They were challenged to grow in virtues like faith, humility, love, fortitude & obedience. Each day they were encouraged to TRUST, SURRENDER, BELIEVE & RECEIVE.
On August 6th, they Consecrated themselves to the Holy Eucharist during a service of Exposition & Veneration of the Blessed Sacrament, followed by the Consecration Prayer & Benediction.
Forty six women attended!!
Prayers of Gratitude to our Presider, Father Kevin C. Nelson, assisted by Deacon Les Loh.
The purpose of this ministry group is to grow in love and knowledge of the Lord through the study of His Holy Word. As stated by St. Jerome, “Ignorance of Scripture is ignorance of Christ.” Gatherings promote self-study, group discussion and will often feature short lectures or DVD presentations. All members share the responsibility of creating an atmosphere of loving support, trust and encouragement where sisters in Christ can share their insights and experiences. All materials are faithful to the Catholic Church’s teaching on Sacred Scripture. As is true of all other ministries, the most important element of this ministry is prayer. Prayer brought this ministry into existence and has sustained it in our parish for many years.
This ministry gathers on Thursday mornings from 9:30 a.m. to 11:00 a.m. in the Parish Center and offers several studies during the year. Many women choose to attend morning Mass prior to the study (please check the bulletin or website for seasonal time changes).
