Many Catholics want to read the Bible but get bogged down by long stretches of text that don't seem to make sense or get lost in the abundance of Old Testament names and places.  "Unlocking the Mystery of the Bible," an eight-week Bible study program, will help you uncover the story woven throughout Scripture so you can get the "big picture" of our sacred text.  In addition to lectures, DVDs, and discussion, participants will also benefit from a special color-coded "Bible Timeline" chart that arranges the key people, places and events of the Bible in chronological order.  

The course will be conducted on Wednesdays starting September 18 at Our Lady of Ransom Church, 8300 N. Greenwood Avenue in Niles.  Each session will be at 7:00 p.m.  There is a registration fee of $25 per person.  "Unlocking the Mystery of the Bible" is a wonderful way to help you grow in your faith and pick up the Bible with confidence.  If you would like to register or require additional information, please telephone Cathy Williams at the Our Lady of Ransom Ministry Center at (847) 823-2550.
