Greco Institute Sponsors Two Catholic
Educational Programs

Bible

Introduction to the Bible
The Greco Institute and the School of Ministry of the University of Dallas are collaborating to offer a course at the Catholic Center in Shreveport. The course is part of the four-year curriculum at the Catholic Biblical School.

On Saturday, June 5, an information session and a lecture introducing the Bible will be offered by University of Dallas instructor, Gene Giuliano, at the Catholic Center 9:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m. Learn what the Church teaches about the Bible; how the Bible was written; and what the Catholic approach is to biblical inspiration and interpretation. Information about Year II of the Catholic Biblical School will be presented as well. New students are welcome and encouraged to attend. For more information contact Greco Institute.
