Questions Set 6: Important Saints

Hey everyone,

I just wanted to give you the questions for March.  These questions will be gone over at Christ in the Capital on the following dates:

Holy Spirit March 10 (Questions Due March 8th)

St. Bede March 13 (Questions due March 11th)

Keep in mind that because of the retreat, Holy Week and Easter Christ in the Capital had to moved to the 2nd Sunday instead of the usual 3rd Sunday.
