Welcome! God's Compassionate Love Readings and Reflection resources for Sunday May 17, 2020 God's Compassionate Love is our theme for this week. The resources for this week use the theme of family. But not in the way we are used to hearing about this in the church. Fr. Michael Himes provides his wonderful storytelling style as he breaks open family as a metaphor for God's love. Fr. Ronald Rolheiser helps make the connections between God's compassion and the Holy Spirit. Below are several videos and articles that can be used for additional reflection on this week's Scripture Readings. We hope you will join us in our online small groups.

Summer Sunday Scripture: August 2, 2020

The preparation for Sunday scripture individual and/or Zoom group will be a little different for the summer  The group would like to still continue meeting, but Marge and Debbie are going to take a break from curating the support materials.  We will continue to provide a link to the readings, and also a link to the St. Louis University Liturgy website which provides a lot of background information on the Sunday readings.  If in the course of our other work we come across a video that works for the readings we will put it up as well, but our discussion will primarily be a breaking open of the Word for the weekend. Zoom Discussion Group Thursdays 11:00 AM A link will be sent to you prior to the session.  Please  REGISTER HERE Sunday August 2, 2020 LINKS Readings The Sunday Reflections at St. Louis University Website How do I approach the Sunday scriptures to prepare to participate in group sharing?
