Come, Lord Jesus Bible Studies
Come Lord Jesus (CLJ) inspires and assists Catholics to live out the Gospel message to the fullest. Through weekly prayer meetings, prayer, and scriptural study, members are formed into ardent apostolic witnesses and dedicated parish ministers. The program is based on the three year cycle of Sunday readings; the group reflects upon one reading each week. Parishioners have the opportunity to become a member of an already existing Come Lord Jesus group or become a leader and resurrect a group of their own. To join or lead a CLJ group, please call the Parish office, 232-8945.
