Calendar
This program meets every Sunday, before service, from 8:30 a.m. until 9:30 a.m.
Under the capable leadership of Mark Oricchio, you will examine the historical origins of the Bible and trace them through modern day translations through a blend of professorial pedagogy and everyday observations. Often, humor is an integral part of the learning experience.
ALL ARE WELCOME.
