What came after Jesus’ post-resurrection appearances to his disciples? What happened to those disciples, and how did we evolve from a small band of Jews following Jesus to being called Christians? You are invited to a study of the Acts of the Apostles – a book of the Bible that we read in worship throughout the Great Fifty Days of Easter, but don’t really spend much time with. As St. Luke’s “second chapter” after his gospel account of Jesus’ life, the story of the Acts of the Apostles is the natural study to follow our study of the Gospel according to Luke that we did last fall. Bishop Loya has invited all of us in the Episcopal Church in Minnesota to study Acts during this Eastertide.

We will begin on Monday, April 15, and meet together, all on Zoom, every Monday through May 20 from 6:30pm to 7:45-ish.  Two resources are recommended: Acts (Interpretation Bible Studies), by Charles C. Williamson and Acts from Scratch, by Donald L. Griggs and Paul W. Waleskey. We will also use our Bibles!

If you are interested in this study, please email Rev. Beth at rector@calvary-rochester.org, so that you can receive the Zoom link.
