No Greater Love: A Biblical Walk Through Christ’s Passion
Posted 1/31/2022
This Lent, we have an opportunity to walk with Jesus from the garden of Gethsemane to Mount Calvary
and the Resurrection.
No Greater Love: A Biblical Walk Through Christ’s Passion is a biblical pilgrimage that reveals Christ’s
amazing love for us. Author Edward Sri will be our guide as we explore these last hours of Jesus and His
Resurrection. Old Testament prophecies and historical context will illuminate for us the mystery of
Christ’s suffering and death. This is a chance for us to experience a deeper understanding and
appreciation of God’s immeasurable love for us. Let’s grow closer to Jesus!
Registration for No Greater Love begins February 5/6 and continues February 12/13 after all Masses.
Online registration is also available on the SJA website. Cost is $25 per person. Zoom and In-person
groups are available. The study can also be done individually with computer access.
This 7 week study will begin Wednesday evening, Feb 23, Thursday morning, Feb 24, and Sunday
evening, Feb 27.
