Lenten Study - "I believe": For five Wednesdays, beginning February 25, we will gather in Tyler Hall to discuss what we believe. The final paragraph of the Apostles' Creed is as follows: I believe in the Holy Spirit, the holy catholic Church, the communion of saints, the forgiveness of sins, the resurrection of the body, and the life everlasting. Each week we will look into the Church's meaning of each phrase, our thoughts and understandings on each and ultimately discover what it is that "I believe." Come and join us beginning Wednesday, February 25 at 11:00 a.m.
