An Easter Season Knowledge Check

The Early Church Community Have you ever read the Book of Acts? It recounts the beginnings of the Church and the acts of the first disciples and apostles to begin spreading the Good News of redemption through Jesus Christ to the world around them. Why not take the time to read Acts during the Easter season, and get acquainted with some pretty interesting stories of some pretty interesting folks? To these brave people we owe the passing on of our faith!

Demetrius, who made silver shrines to the goddess Artemis. An Ethiopian, who is baptized by the apostle Philip. How Peter finds his courage and his voice.
