Lenten Education & formation

Sundays in Lent we gather for an educational program learning about and discussing Paul the Pharisee. We are using John Dominic Crossan’s recent book, Paul the Pharisee, along with. webinar of his lectures.

Wednesdays in Lent we gather for spiritual formation in the evening service which invites discussion and reflection on our spiritual lives. Everyone is welcome to join for soup supper at 5:30 pm and the service at 6:00 pm.

Monday Mindfulness REflection

On Mondays along with the mindfulness period we reflect on our prayer lives and practices. It is an opportunity to talk about spirituality in our daily life. We share our journeys and support one another on this path of contemplative prayer.

Saturday Centering Prayer SEssion

As part of the centering prayer group on Saturday mornings we frequently read a book together or use prayers from various sources to inspire conversation about our life of faith.

Baptism and Confirmation

Are you interested in being Baptized or Confirmed in the Episcopal Church? We’d love to be part of your journey!

Baptism is one of the two great sacraments of the Gospel (the other is the Eucharist we celebrate on Sundays). It is the sacrament by which God adopts us as his children and makes us Members of Christ’s Body, the Church. If you have never been Baptized, our Priest would be most happy to help you prepare.

Confirmation is a rite in which we express a mature commitment to Christ. If you’d like to be confirmed in the Episcopal Church, or if you’ve already been confirmed elsewhere and would like to be received formally by our Bishop, let our Priest know! We can help prepare you in time for the next visit from our Bishop.
