Join Us for The Gospel of John with Fr. Eugene Hensell
Monday, March 5 -Thursday, March 8, 2012, at 7pm in the Keller Room

Fr. Eugene returns for four consecutive evenings to lead us through a study of the Gospel of John. John was the last canonical gospel accepted into the New Testament and its style is quite different than what is found in the synoptic gospels.  The first part of the gospel of John (1-12) is often referred to as "the book of signs."  There are at least seven signs presented in these chapters whose function is to disclose the "real" identity of Jesus.  Many of the presentations for this gospel focus on these signs and related material.
