Are you looking for a great New Year’s
resolution? Join us as we gather to pray, share our
Scripture lesson questions and experience the
video commentary by Dr. Edward Sri.
Follow Me: Meeting Jesus in the Gospel of John is
your guide to a personal encounter with Christ. As
the Good Shepherd, Jesus seeks after us. He comes
to meet us and beckons us to follow him. He calls
us to be his disciples, to trust him, to open
ourselves to his merciful love, and to love others
as he has loved us. Follow Me invites you to
experience the joy of a renewed friendship with
Christ.
