The focus of this meeting was in making plans for our Lenten study on “A Biblical Walk Through the Mass”.  Twenty-five parishioners signed up for the program on Sundays, beginning on March 5, 2017, while 11 individuals signed up for the program to be presented on Thursday mornings.  The Thursday sessions will begin on March 2nd.  Linda Zecha will be the facilitator for the Thursday sessions.  Sister Rebecca, Cathy, and Regis will facilitate the Sunday sessions.  It was decided to order three more Leader’s Guides for the group facilitators.  Mary and David will fill in as facilitators when Regis and Sister Rebecca have to be gone.  The Thursday group will meet following the 8:30 a.m. Mass, while the Sunday sessions will begin with lunch following the 10:30 a.m. Mass.  Members of the ARF Commission will provide the lunch for the first meeting, and the attendees were divided into three groups to alternate providing lunches for the remaining sessions.  The program consists of five sessions, with an optional sixth session.  Sister Rebecca will come up with opening and closing prayers for the sessions.  Those attending the sessions were divided into three small groups for discussions.  These groups are as follows:
