Jeff Cavins is coming to Drogheda.
What: “The Joy of the Bible”
When: Wednesday 18th November at 7:30 P.M.
Where: The Main Theatre in The Barbican Centre, William Street, Drogheda.
Admission: FREE – donations may be made on the night to help defray expenses.
Jeff Cavins is the creator of the popular Great Adventure Bible Study Programme which has been used by more that five thousand parishes in the United States, Ireland, and other countries. He is a founding host of EWTN’s weekly programme Life on the Rock, author of several books, co-editor of the Amazing Grace Series and of Walking with God, which gives an overview of the Bible.
Many from Armagh diocese had the opportunity to experience his Bible Timeline series as Bible in a Day in Dromantine earlier this year, and parishioners in the Dungannon, Dundalk and Drogheda areas have since gathered to study the Timeline series over four weeks as Bible in a Month.
Jeff is coming to Ireland for one week only, to address gatherings in Maynooth (Monday 16th) and Belfast (Saturday 21st), and we are delighted to have him with us in Drogheda on Wednesday 18th for what promises to be an exciting presentation titled The Joy of the Bible. We highly recommend this evening to anyone curious about the Bible, and interested in learning more. It promises to be of great benefit to Bible Study Groups, to Lay Ministers of the Word, to members of Lectio Divina prayer groups, etc., but Jeff’s easy style is accessible to all, and all are most welcome.
This is a once-off opportunity to witness a presentation by Jeff Cavins in person in Drogheda. There is no admission charge, but donations may be made on the evening, if desired, to help defray expenses.
