What people are saying

“I have been attending Bible study with Fr. Jon for the last two years. I’m embarrassed to say that as a lifelong Catholic I had not studied the Bible before Fr. Mike Schmitz’s Bible in a Year. While that was a good introduction, Fr. Jon’s Bible study uses maps to clarify events and he continuously refers to Old Testament prophecies to show the continuity between the Old and New Testaments. An hour a week is a simple commitment to gain a deeper understanding of the Bible.”
Jere Ablonczy, January 2024

“After 16 years of Catholic education, I was familiar with the Scripture readings at Mass. When the opportunity to learn more presented itself, I decided to join Father Jon’s Bible study. His knowledge, supplemented by art and maps, was immediately evident. Much of our Old Testament study was new to me and I am now learning the messages in Mark’s Gospel. I recommend these thoroughly enjoyable and instructive sessions.”
Dr. Courtney Malcarney, January 2024

“Maps are important to me. Visualizing where events occurred in relation to others makes it real. Even though I’ve heard the New Testament readings throughout my life, I had mostly surface knowledge. I look forward to each Tuesday evening for the next chapter.”
Kathryn Malcarney, January 2024

“We have been attending the Bible study since its inception three years ago. Outstanding presentations by Father Jon. We highly recommend it to all!”
John and Gerry McCloskey, January 2024
