Once again this year we will be offering the six week course on What Christians Believe, called "Turning to Christ" and part of the Pilgrim set of courses.This course is for enquirers about the Christian faith and those who want to re-visit the basics of their faith. Each session involves some reading of passages from the Bible and time to think about them and discuss them. And then we will pick up on some key ideas about who Christ is.The course will run on Tuesday evenings after the 7.30pm Mass so it will begin at about 8.05pm starting with a cup of tea or coffee. You can find a short introductory video about the course here: https://youtu.be/94iJqkJ_A5MIf you have any questions about the course do get in touch.
