The Saint John's Men's Faith Discussion Group meets on Tuesdays, 9–11 AM in the Fireside Room.
Our goal is to increase our spiritual growth through discussions of topics of interest to our religious formation: Vatican II, the Catechism, The Bible, Apologetics, Fathers of the Church and many other diverse topics regarding our Faith. We enliven our studies with viewing DVDs and other educational media produced by renowned Catholic speakers, followed by discussions among ourselves. The camaraderie and respectful exchange of thoughts among the group's participants is a unique, faith-growing experience that we invite others to share.
Come and join us after 8:00 Mass on Tuesday mornings for coffee, home-baked goodies and stimulating discussion.
