A newly founded club, Bible Club, has just been established by sophomores Mirabella Gaskill and Vivie Hayes. Gaskill and Hayes are both from St. Roch and attended the St. Jude Antioch weekend retreat earlier this year. Both girls mentioned how impactful that retreat was and influenced their decision to start Bible Club.
“The Bible is such an important part of our belief but so many people do not know how to read it. I wanted to create a community where it was okay to ask questions and not understand,” Gaskill said.
“I wanted to share God’s love and word with anyone open to it,” Hayes said.
In the club, students will read chapter by chapter beginning with the gospels so that everyone can understand the full meaning and lessons of God’s word.
“I believe this club will benefit Roncalli because it offers students a chance to grow in their faith and learn how to live and fulfill a God-centered life alongside their peers,” Hayes said.
They had a great turn out for their first meeting on February 4th and many other people expressed interest in joining.
The club will meet every other Tuesday at 3:15 in Mrs. Watsons’ room! The next meeting will be held on February 18th. Contact Mirabella Gaskill or Vivie Hayes for any questions or if you are interested in joining! All are welcome!
