St. Joe has added a weekly student-led Bible Study this year. Our purpose is to educate our brothers and sisters in Christ about God’s Word, as well as strengthen each other so we can hold fast to our faith. Topics we have studied this year include God’s grace, the difference in being a disciple of Christ and a Christian, how to love others as Christ loved us, and how to live a life that matches our faith.
