Bible reading proposals Survey

Dear group leaders,

In order to enhance our faith and our Biblical knowledge, the Board has invited Mike Pan (潘齊家) to hold a Bible Reading Group. I would like to express appreciation for his willingness to contribute his effort.  

The followings are three proposals from Mike:

(1)     Read 6 pages of the Bible per day. The Bible can be read through in one year.  

(2)     Read the Sunday Mass Gospel and Readings.

(3)     Discussion of some important topics such as 救恩 復活 聖母etc.

Although we would like Mike to help in all three of above proposals for the most benefit of our community, due to time and resource limitation Mike is able to do one at a time.

We would like to know which of the above three is most appealing to everyone. Please help us by asking your team members to complete the survey form. The time shown on the form is tentative, feel free to make suggestion if there is a conflict of schedule.

Turn in the survey in hard copy or by email before 9/25 to An-Pung Yueh (ap3088 @ hotmail.com) , or to our secretary, Irene Tang (Tangmc06 @ gmail.com) , Hui-Chun Chen, or Theresa Hu.

Thank you very much for your attention and cooperation.

God bless,

Kam Chow
