However, Studio 3:16, developed by local founders Rob Reynolds and Shevin McCullough, has consistently accomplished this goal, impacting over 100 dioceses and countless children through their dynamic and relevant Catholic content.

"Studio 3:16 has really changed our religion classes from checking off boxes of 'what should be taught' in the classroom, to building a relationship with Jesus Christ from the heart. We will be using Studio 3:16 not only in our school, but in our parish Faith Formation program as well,” shared Kay Berg, Middle School Teacher and Catechist at St. Francis Xavier Parish and School in the Diocese of Superior. “I am super excited for our students this year!” 

There are many ways to encounter the Lord and diving into Scripture is one of the greatest ways to do so. Recently, Studio 3:16 launched the pilot of a video-based, Gospel-centered supplemental program for parish faith formation aimed at presenting the practice of Lectio Divina in an engaging way. This program is specifically tailored to parish faith formation students. 

Through discernment and an act of generosity and selfless service, Studio 3:16 decided to provide the program to parish faith formation leaders and parents within the Diocese of Saint Petersburg completely free of charge until the end of the school year. Normally a paid subscription of up to a $1,000 value, this is an incredible opportunity to take advantage of all that Studio 3:16 has to offer and to participate in leading young people closer to Christ.

"The joy and zeal that Studio 3:16 is bringing to classrooms across the country is a true work of the Holy Spirit,” said Jesslyn Manni, Student Evangelization Team Member at Studio 3:16. “I have had the unique privilege of seeing the excitement that comes from using this program and the impact it is having on students diving deeper into scripture and their Catholic faith.” 

If you are interested in this program, please contact your parish faith formation leader and encourage them to take advantage of this opportunity.
