SCRIPTURE STUDY

The Sacred Scriptures contain the Word of God and, because they are inspired they are truly the Word of God." (Dei Verbum, #24)

The Sacred Scriptures are of fundamental importance in the Church's life. As the "very word of God" and "the voice of the Holy Spirit" [DV, 21], Christian living must be permeated with biblical spirit and attitudes.

An essential ingredient in the life of the baptized is the need to understand the Scriptures with its accompanying requirement to proclaim the Word. Well-informed access to the Scriptures nourishes and transforms the lives of individuals, the parish community and the whole church
