About the Deacon's Table
In-Person Meetings
The Deacon’s Table at The Basilica of Saints Peter and Paul is an adult Sunday School Class started by Deacon Tom and Brenda McConnell that meets each Sunday between Masses in the Varallo Parish Hall from 10:15-11:15am.
Following the passing of Dcn. Tom, Brenda McConnell resumed the Deacon's Table, Sunday, October 24, 2021.
Please come join us to FEAST UPON SPRITUALITY at the Deacon’s Table. Pull up a 3-legged stool and join us to learn and discuss essential elements of Spirituality: - an active and spontaneous prayer life,
- a personal relationship with Christ, and
- a comfortable enthusiasm with Holy Scripture.
Bring your favorite breakfast snack to share. Coffee and donuts are provided.The purpose of The Deacon’s Table is to equip members for discipleship. We study apologetics, Sacred Scripture, Catholic doctrine and catechism, and general topics of current applicability and interest. You will experience prominent Catholic personalities, scholars, and presenters in varying modes such as DVD, YouTube, guest speakers, and other video/audio media.
Ours is an excellent forum to socialize and meet other parishioners, to forge lasting friendships and mentorships. Let the “Deacon’s Table” become your extended family. We have socials quarterly and, in the summer, include a Kids’ Table meeting separately but at the same time as the Adult Table.
For more information, please contact us through the parish office. You may also join The Deacon's Table discussion group on the myParish app.
