"We have been attending the Bible Study at St. Max for the past two years. It’s amazing what we really never learned in our earlier years even going through all the classes for Sacraments. Rick has been a wonderful teacher and brings to light many facts that are not readily understandable to one reading the Bible. He has helped us realize how the Old Testament is a precursor to the New Testament and how the stories and the facts relate. We have also learned how to read the Catechism of the Catholic Church (CCC) to better understanding what is written in the Bible. We very much enjoy the classes and look forward to going each week and sharing with the group that attends." 6 - Bob and Donna Rogulski
