More Info about Lectio: Eucharist:

Why does the Catholic Church call the Eucharist the "source and summit of the Christian life”? Through lectio divina, Dr. Brant Pitre introduces us to the Sacrament of the Eucharist and explores its various names—and how those names give insight into its meaning.

In Lectio: Eucharist by the Augustine Institute, acclaimed author and teacher Dr. Brant Pitre digs down to the biblical roots of the Eucharist, through its foreshadowing in the miraculous events of the Old Testament, the Gospels, and apostolic teaching. "Discovering the Mass in the Bible," "The Lamb of God," "The Bread of Life," "The Body and the Blood of Christ"— these are phrases Catholics know from the Mass. But do we understand what they mean in the greater and deeper context of Scripture and Church teaching? We'll discover firsthand how Christ's Body and Blood are an integral and wondrous part of God's plan for our salvation. 

Combining the insights of Dr. Brant Pitre with the masterful artistry of the Augustine Institute, this LECTIO series uses the Church's rich tradition of lectio divina to help you better understand the mystery of the Eucharist.

Bible Study is offered once or twice each year. The length of each Bible Study course varies based on the topic. 

The group meets every other Wednesday at 6:30pm for about 90 minutes in Vincent Hall, 1324 Moss Street.
