\"DecorativeAfter being in the wilderness of Judea for forty days and forty nights, alone, famished, and weak, Jesus was tempted by Satan to make loaves of bread from the stones around him, to prove his power, to alleviate his suffering. The Lord turned to his tempter and answered, “It is written: man will not live by bread alone, but by every word that comes from the mouth of God.”  <\/p>\n

During the upcoming “wilderness” season of Lent, a time when we imitate Christ’s fast from the good things in our lives to pursue a deeper and lasting communion with our God, we will be following the example of Jesus in nourishing ourselves with the word of God, studying the stories, teachings, patterns, and promises found in the God-breathed Gospel of Luke. As we read this book from start to finish we will open ourselves up to discover on every page the Word of God made flesh, and challenge each other to live lives transformed by this same Word.<\/p>\n

Beginning February 23, 2022, join us every Wednesday evening for ten weeks at 7:00 PM at St. Peter’s Church<\/strong> as together we strive to “live by every word that comes from the mouth of God.” On Ash Wednesday, March 2, 2022, we will meet immediately after the parish\u2019s 7:00 PM Ash Wednesday Mass.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
