“The Confessions of St. Augustine”
Mondays, September 12 - November 21, 2022 (10 weeks) 6:30 pm – 8:00 pm in the Good Shepherd Center at St. Mary Church, Uxbridge, MA
Dr. Marc LePain, retired theology professor at Assumption University, returns to St. Mary Church, Uxbridge, MA to teach on
St. Augustine. The noted Catholic lay theologian Frank Sheed observed that “Every person living in the Western world would be a different person if Augustine had not been, or had been different. Naturally Augustine did not know this, but it is a pity if we do not.”
We will make the acquaintance of Augustine by reading his best known and most novel work, the Confessions. After an overview of his life and times, his numerous works, and the thirteen books that he called Confessions, we will devote a session to each of the first nine books that deal with Augustine’s past life to the time of his Baptism at age 32.
So everyone has the same translation of the book, the cost will be $15.00 and will include the book and refreshments.
