Adult Education

 

The more we learn about our spiritual heritage, the stronger we will be as citizens of the Church and the world. As Episcopalians we have inherited the Bible, the Book of Common Prayer and the rich tradition of Anglican via media, the middle way bridging the gap between Catholic and Protestant understandings of Christianity. A major responsibility of a parish church like ours is to make available Bible study and opportunities to learn about the worship, mission, and theology of the Episcopal Church.  If you would like to investigate topics that are not included in this year’s educational offerings, please speak to one of the clergy, and we will try to expand our curriculum.

What follows is a brief summary for this year. We hope that many will sign up for the courses offered. As stewards of the Good News each of us can benefit from study, review, and discovery of the materials of our common faith.

There are more offerings in the planning stages. Please contact the Rev. Dorsey McConnell with any questions or suggestions. We look forward to your participation!

 

          Adult Education

  • bulletKnowing God: An Exploration of Faith
              Year-long monthly class on "first-order” questions and more discussed in a context of our Biblical stories, our Christian and Anglican tradition, and our lives today. In small group discussions arranged at participants’ convenience, we will add our own voices to the mix, wrestling with the same dilemmas that the church has wrestled with throughout its formation. We will add literature, film, and art as we see fit.
  •             The program meets at 7:30 pm at the Rectory on first Wednesdays. Dinner is held preceding the program at 7:00 pm. During Lent and Advent, the series matches the time and location of that series and is held in conjunction.
