Revelation: The Kingdom Yet to Come
Thursday mornings, 10:00 am - 11:30 am
PLC - Parish Hall
An Ascension Press production featuring Jeff Cavins. This 11 week study begins February 25, 2020 and runs through May 13, 2021.
Yet to Come is an intriguing eleven-session study program that shows how the kingdom established by Christ in his Church is intimately connected with the kingdom of heaven. In this study, presenter Jeff Cavins pulls back the veil on the rich symbolism present in Revelation. Discover what the mysterious figures and images of Revelation mean and see how Revelation is more than an apocalyptic vision of the “end times.” Explore the Church’s teaching on the second coming of Christ and the Last Judgment. Understand how God, the Divine Bridegroom, and the Church, his spotless bride, enter into a heavenly, holy, and mystical marriage every time we celebrate Mass.

LIFELONG FAITH FORMATION
"The definitive aim of catechesis is to put people not only in touch but in communion, in intimacy, with Jesus Christ: only he can lead us to the love of the Father in the Spirit and make us share in the life of the Holy Trinity." ( Catechesi Tradendae, #5)
Saint Mark the Evangelist Parish strives to offer a variety of methods (lecture, workshops, book club, scripture study and small group discussion) and various times so many may participate.
