These photos were taken at the Workshop on St. Paul given by renowned New Testament scholar, Professor Raymond Collins. Fr. Collins, the author of numerous books and articles, spoke on St Paul, Preacher of the Gospel, the Women in St. Paul’s Ministry and The Cross in Paul. This was a wonderful opportunity to learn more about St. Paul and his writing.
Founded by St. Paul of the Cross, every Passionist takes a special vow to spend his or her energies in promoting remembrance of the sufferings of Jesus, the memory of the Cross, and reflection of the meaning of the Cross for the world.
