Our Catechism Class with Dr. Tom Slakey will begin the fall session on Thursday evening, September 25. We will meet in the St. Catherine Room on the second and fourth Thursday evenings of each month. The class will begin promptly at 7:00 PM and conclude by 8:30. You will need a copy of “Catechism of the Catholic Church,” second edition.
