Through the Liturgical Bible Study (LBS)

The Holy Bible is our greatest tool of experiencing God in our life as it holds testimonies and manifestations of God’s unconditional love for us. It is our instrument to learn more about our Catholic faith, thus it is very important that we learn from it, and use it.

The Liturgical Bible Study (LBS) is a tool that will surely lead us to this. The LBS is ideally done once a week that would focus on the readings of the upcoming Sunday mass. It will go through a process of dissecting the Gospel, 1st reading and 2nd reading, to get the central message of the readings and how it is applicable to our lives.

The Holy Bible is our greatest tool of experiencing God in our life as it holds testimonies and manifestations of God’s unconditional love for us.

Questions and answers are drawn from the Biblical text. Basic questions are who, when, where, what and how.
