We had an intimate group Wednesday for our first
in-person book club chat. But everyone admitted the holidays didn't help any of
us accomplish a full or careful reading of “What Happened at Vatican II” by Father John W.
O’Malley, SJ.
So we've decided to give ourselves a break. For our
Feb. 20 session, we'll take a close look at the book through Chapter 4.
We also decided to read a few of the Vatican II
documents in the order they'll be discussed at Bishop David J. Malloy's Year of
Faith Lecture Series. The next lecture is Feb. 21 and the topic will be the Dogmatic Constitution on the Church (Lumen Gentium). We'll read and talk
about that, too, at our Feb. 20 gathering ... and online, of course.
You'll notice there's a new tab at the top of this
page -- Vatican II Resources. Click on that to get links to the documents and
to see a schedule for Bishop Malloy's lectures.
We also have a slightly more detailed list of our meetings if you click on Meeting dates tab.
Watch for more details here and in The Observer.
