Synopsis
7-week Small Group Scripture Discussion Guide on the Catholic Lectionary Enrich your experience of the life, death, and resurrection of Jesus through reflection on the Sunday Lent and Easter Scriptures. Questions on the words and actions of Jesus and his followers, and the Old Testament stories prefiguring or predicting his mission, open our eyes to God’s ways in the world and in our hearts. Each week a “Connection to the Cross this Week” activity inspires group participants or readers to open to Jesus in a new way, allowing him to transform every part of their lives through ongoing conversion and renewal. So that all parishes may be truly communities of Christians, local ecclesial authorities ought to foster… small, basic or so-called ‘living’ communities, where the faithful can communicate the word of God and express it in service and love to one another; these communities are true expressions of ecclesial communion and centers of evangelization in communion with their pastors. -John Paul II, The Lay Members of Christ’s Faithful People Small group leader training is ideal, but a group could begin meeting using the guidelines in the appendices of Connection to Cross: how to prepare; small group facilitation; prayer in the group; and group dynamics. The Evangelical Catholic (EC) helps parishes, dioceses, and university and college campus ministries build vibrant, fruitful, self-sustaining local ministries. Located in Madison, Wisconsin, the EC is approved by our ordinary, listed in Kenedy's Official Catholic Directory, and is a member of the national Catholic Campus Ministry Association. We partner in mission with the University of Notre Dame Institute for Church Life; the Sisters for Life, the Knights of Columbus, and the Center for Liturgy at Notre Dame, which co-sponsors and provides faculty for our nationwide training camps.
