Roman Catholic bishops have been meeting in Rome for the Synod of Bishops. The theme for this meeting is, basically, the Bible. It seems as if the Pope and St Timothy's are thinking along the same lines - how can we rekindle love and interest in the Bible - the story of God's salvation of humanity? Today we finish our final Rekindle the Bible gathering. All month we have looked at the Bible as a whole, the Old Testament, the New Testament, and today we'll talk about making the Bible a part of our daily life and practice (plus some time spent looking at hard parts in the Bible). Come join us! (8:15am - which is about to start!!, and 6:30pm)
