Small Groups
All are invited to join a Sheil small group to explore a particular area of the Catholic faith and meet other members of the community. Ranging from bible studies to histories, each quarter there are new topics.

Bible Reflections Group (open to all)

Explore the scriptures! We are reading the Bible and reflecting on how it speaks to our lives. This is a "come when you can" group so no advance registration is necessary. Please send an email to Lisa Russ here and ask to be added to the Bible Reflections group email list.

Pump the Brakes: Silence, Solitude, and Sabbath (open to all students)
Mondays from 7:00-8:15 p.m., April 28-May 19 in the Student Lounge at Sheil Catholic Center, Evanston
We’ve all experienced this dialogue, “How are you doing? Oh, I’m so busy.” Busyness has taken over all of our lives. We are constantly hurrying between classes, clubs, relationships, and so much more which all fight for the little time we have and leave not much for God. This group will look at our busyness and introduce the gifts of silence, solitude and sabbath as pathways to pump the brakes and ensure that we are keeping the most important thing—our relationship with God—the most important thing.
Facilitator: Fr. Bradley Zamora
