I must say I would also like to get a Douey-Rheims as well.

Good on you on that Bible study. We had a weekly one during the day at my friends house. I miss those days. I worked nights then and was not married. We would go to Mass then over to Marna's for coffee and Bible study. We had a priest who came as often as he could. We always missed him when he would be kept away by Church business, but no one missed him more then Marna's dog Bailey. That dog loved Fr. Bob.

Marna was raised Mennonite. She came home and she was just so in the Spirit. She gave me the most beautiful Blessed Mother votive that I have put many candles in over the years. We always prayed the Rosary together before we started our sessions.

I had the privilege of having a Sister as a prayer mentor for many years. She lead me through the Franciscan exercises during lent one year. WOW!

I miss my sisters in Christ from Indiana. There were many. I still and in touch with most of them. My only regret is that I never was able due to work, to be able to go to the Medjugorje Conference in South Bend. I never made it there.

I am new to Indiana. We moved here from Ohio last October. I’m still learning my way around here. I do intend to find a Bible study group in the next year. One of my neighbors has spoken about one that she goes to, but I want to see what is offered at my church or the others nearby.
