      The “Come and Rest” Bible study enables me to prepare more fully for the Sunday mass.

When the weekend mass arrives, it is often with affirmation and confirmation that I hear the words of Christ.”            - L. Jones

      “I had the privilege of journeying through Advent immersed in these reflections. I follow the Orthodox fast to prepare myself spiritually to receive the blessings of celebrating Jesus the light of the world.

      “This powerful study, surely inspired by the Holy Spirit, is a must for anyone seeking a deeper understanding of the sacred scriptures and the Sunday liturgy.”
