Session 12 – Lectio Divina – The Redeemed Man
The Latin phrase “lectio divina” may be translated as “divine reading.” Lectio divina is a method for praying with the Scriptures. As one reads and invites the Word to become a transforming lens that brings the events of daily living into focus, one can come to live more deeply and find the presence of God more readily in the events of each day.
Christian prayer tries above all to meditate on the mysteries of Christ, as in lectio divina or the rosary. – CCC 2708
If you have a chance, please review pages vi-viii for an overview of what to expect.
Please bring your Bible (physical or electronic) as we'll be reading scripture passages. We will be praying with Romans 6:5-11.
Food and drinks will be served at the start of the gathering.

Session 8: Jesus – Crucified Savior Part 2
This sacrifice of Christ is unique; it completes and surpasses all other sacrifices. First, it is a gift from God the Father himself, for the Father handed his Son over to sinners in order to reconcile us with himself. At the same time it is the offering of the Son of God made man, who in freedom and love offered his life to his Father through the Holy Spirit in reparation for our disobedience.
Catechism of the Catholic Church. 614
