Join a Small Group
This Fall, our small groups will gather once again with the shared goal of following Jesus more closely. Each group will look a little different — different content, ages, and backgrounds — but they will be united in their purpose: to be formed in Christ. This season’s content options all focus on the primacy of Sunday as God’s “day of delight”:
- Fr. Mike Schmitz’s homily series (Video or Podcast)
- Bishop Barron’s “What Christian’s Believe” (Book)
- John Mark Comer's "Practicing the Way" (Video and/or Book)
Each of these will spark rich discussion within your group and personal reflection with God, helping you answer the question: “What does life in Christ look like for me?”
Women's Night at HNOJ
Women’s Night at HNOJ is back by popular demand. We will offer an evening (generally the first Thursday of the month) for socializing, prayer and growing in faith. What to expect: a speaker, small group discussion, fellowship, laughter, snacks and drinks. No cost to attend, but we will take up a free-will offering to cover snacks, wine and soda/sparkling water.
