RectorÂs Bible Study

Tuesdays at 3:00 in the library.

This week, weÂll ponder JonahÂs reaction when God decided not to overthrow Nineveh. (Jonah 3:10-4:11)

Wednesday Holy Eucharist

11 am

Theodore of Tarsus, Archbishop of Canterbury, 690

Theodore accomplished much as a Archbishop. One great thing was establishing a school in Canterbury, providing instruction in both Greek and Latin. This led to a Âgolden ageÂ of Anglo-Saxon scholarship. A recent discovery at Canterbury uncovered writings some of which have been attributed to Theodore. These writings have been published Â and the book (The Christology of Theodore of Tarsus: The Laterculus Malalianus and the Person and Work of Christ) is available on Amazon for $89.
