                         “Into the Heart of God”

by Jean Vanier

     When:  Starting September 17, 2014

                  Wednesdays

                  9:30 to 10:30 AM

    Where: Convent Conference Room

This is an exploration into the Gospel of John. By retracing the actual steps through the Holy Land of the events and accounts of this gospel, Jean Vanier recreates a vivid and intimate portrait of what is often called the "mystical gospel." This series looks deep into the gospel, and in so doing brings us further into the heart of God, whose boundless love for humanity manifests itself in the life and times of Jesus.
