Reading the Bible with the Fathers

Reserve my spot

Savoring the Holy Scriptures

This weekend offers an opportunity to listen to the Church Fathers, those writers and witnesses of Christian antiquity, to better interpret, meditate on, and savor the treasure of the Holy Scriptures.

Discover how the Fathers pioneered these theological and spiritual approaches through their commentaries on the narratives of the book of Genesis and the Gospels.

The weekend will be led by Father Marie-Alexandre, director of the theology studium at Rimont.
