Moms Group Monthly Meetings Resume Come join the moms of the Apple Valley Catholic community to get to know people, talk kid stuff, and share the faith! Our first meeting will be on Oct 18 at 7 p.m. and the next on Nov 8.

November is the time when we remember those who have died. To mark this time, the Apple Valley Community will host the annual Remembrance Service on Friday, November 5 at St. Elizabeth of Hungary Church. This moving service consists of music, scripture, prayer, and a time for all gathered to come forward and light a candle in memory of their deceased loved ones. We hope you will join us.
“The Infancy Narratives of Jesus”, will explore the stories of the conception and birth of Jesus in the gospels of Matthew and Luke. This three-week study will begin Tuesday evening November 2 at 7:30pm. It will be held over Zoom. A text (either print or ebook) will need to be ordered for study ahead of the first session. Details to follow. Please email questions or your enrollment request by October 18, to Steve Ryan sjryan01@verizon.net.
We learned during Covid, that digital platforms can be very effective and helpful tools for religious education and sacramental preparation. As we continue to grow as discipleship leaders, we are excited about being able to offer both instructional models in a hybrid approach that will help to make faith formation even more accessible to everyone!
It helps to explain why we are engaged in this endeavor of taking up study of the Bible. AsThis four-week study focuses on how the Second Vatican Council clarified and updated the place of the Bible for the Church in the document known as Dei Verbum. The council expanded the use of Bible texts in the lectionary and encouraged our personal study. such, the character of this study is more ABOUT the Bible than a study OF the Bible.
