Information sessions have been scheduled for Tuesday, May 8, and Tuesday May 15 from 7-8:30 pm in rooms 2&3 at Good Shepherd. The instructor, Gene Giuliano will be at these sessions to answer all of your questions.
There is an early registration savings that has been extended until May 15. If you register and pay for the year by May 15 it is $575 and after that it goes to $615.
If you are interested in registering, the link is below. You will choose the Fall 2012 options and register now. Then choose the annual registration. When you go to the checkout page it will still say the full price, they are aware of this, but assured me that it will charge you the reduced price!

What is the Catholic Biblical School?
The School of Ministry Catholic Biblical School is a four-year program of intensive study covering the entire Bible. It is Catholic in that it follows the directives of Scripture study as given in the Vatican II document, Dei Verbum (1965), and in more recent documents by the Pontifical Biblical Commission such as The Interpretation of the Bible in the Church (1993), and The Jewish People and Their Sacred Scriptures in the Christian Bible (2002).
The Benefits
As a CBS student, you can strengthen your faith through a deeper knowledge of scripture. Through participation in CBS, you will learn to:
- Interpret the Bible in accordance with the teachings of the Catholic Church and modern biblical scholarship
- Integrate Bible study with prayer and Christian living
- Achieve a closer relationship with God’s revealed word
The Courses
The first two years of the CBS program, focus on the biblical books that form the foundation of both the Old and New Testaments. Years three and four of the program cover the remaining books of the bible, emphasizing their contexts and principle themes. While starting at the beginning of the four year cycle is encouraged, a student can join the program at any point.
