Christian Formation
|
Adult education Nancy Tunnessen, Adult Education Committee Chair Life long learners...that's us! Living here in the southern
part of heaven dominated by great universities, centers of
technology, and industrial innovators, we tend to pride ourselves
on our intellect, curiosity, and passion for understanding and
growth. In churchy terms, that passion for learning, understanding, and
growth is a major component of Christian formation. Part of our
growth as a Christian can be boosted by consistent involvement in
the education opportunities offered by the parish. Classes,
discussion groups, book groups, prayer groups, quiet days...all
offer you insights and information to help you as you mature as a
Christian. The task of the Adult Education Committee is to plan programs
covering a wide variety of Christian topics...from Bible study to
improving your prayer life to suggestions for tangible ways to live
out the tenets of your faith in the world. The committee pays
attention to current events, issues within our denomination, and to
concerns of our children's parents. Our brainstorming sessions
are never dull. But all the while we try to keep the parish's
mission statement and the Baptismal Covenant as our
foundation. Look for this fall's Adult Education schedule in the center
of this issue of Cross Roads on blue paper. It's a full
and exciting schedule. Plan now to attend. This year committee members are Paul Carew, Ian Dunn, Al Guckes,
Amy Harwell, Gretchen Jordan, Mary Ann Morris, Ralph Smith, Lee
Thomas, and Nancy Tunnessen (chair). Let us know what you would be
interested in learning! Send
