The Gospel of St. Matthew: Jesus Our Emmanuel


Presenter: Fr. Thomas P. Bonacci, C.P.
Held at St. Joseph Parish Hall
43148 Mission Blvd., Fremont 94539

Our eight-part series on the Gospel of St. Matthew helps us to savor the Ordinary Gospel readings for the current Liturgical Year "A" which began on the First Sunday of Advent and concludes with the Feast of Christ the King. Our series will explore St. Matthew's Gospel as a unified presentation of the words and deeds of Jesus. Our series will help participants gain a greater knowledge of Matthew's Gospel for both public worship and private devotion. Each section is independent so participants need not attend every session to benefit from the teachings and reflections. Notes will be provided for your personal study and reflection.
