We will be meeting in 32-D451 and discussing 2nd Corinthians Ch 6-7.  (If you
look on MIT Maps, they have floor level schematics for Stata so you can find
the room.  D means that it is the tower closest to Bldg 36 and the rest of
campus.)

- Undergraduate Scripture Study
This Bible Study meets on Thursdays at 8:30 in McCormick. It usually runs for
about an hour. The format of the study is basically reading, meditating on, and
discussing the Gospel for the following Sunday's Mass during the first part,
and then either listening to or reading something of Catholic interest and
discussing it which will be selected at the first meeting this Thursday(9/15).

- Interdenominational Scripture Study
Interested in discussing Scripture with other Catholics and non-Catholic
Christians? This study chooses topics in advance about which Catholics and
other Christians usually disagree and then seeks to come to a better
understanding of these through Scripture as well as readings from the early
Church Fathers. It meets every other Thursday in W11 starting 10/6 from 7
-8:30pm.
