New this week CORINTHIANS BIBLE STUDY The conflicts of the early Christians in Corinth are in many ways similar to our struggles today as Christians. They, too, witnessed division, scandal, immorality, persecution and other trials. In response, St. Paul taught the Corinthians about the Church as the Body of Christ, introducing them to the most powerful gift of all: the Eucharist. Join us for First Corinthians: The Church and the Christian Community at St. Paul’s NEW church in the conference room beginning January 9 at 7:00 pm and continuing every Wednesday ~ Last class March 20.
