FORMATION + FELLOWSHIP
CHRISTIAN FORMATION
We know that Christian education is more than acquiring knowledge; it is about helping one another discover God’s presence in and purpose for our lives. Christian Formation provides opportunities for learning and growing together in our faith, as well as in our relationships with one another.
CURRENT FORMATION OPPORTUNITIES
Adult Forum
Sundays at 9am in the Parish Hall
November 10 – Episcopal Vowed Communities
Did you know there are Episcopalians who have promised to follow a specific, disciplined rule of life, which can include becoming a monk or nun? Join our own vowed community member, Brenna Seifried, as she tells us a little more about her experiences and these communities.
November 17 – Praying with Icons
Did you know you can pray not only with words, but with your eyes open? Religious icons have been used for centuries by Orthodox Christians to look, sit still, and wait for God to speak. Join us as we learn more about this practice and try it for yourself!

FELLOWSHIP
Coffee Hour
Coffee Hour is held most Sundays after the 10:30 worship service. This weekly time for fellowship is hosted by parishioners who sign up to make coffee and bring light snacks to share. Hosting is a breeze when you sign up with your family or a friend! Contact the church office if you’d like to learn more about hosting Coffee Hour.
“Creating Community” Gatherings
Do you enjoy crafting? Join us for casual Saturday mornings of making, together! A simple craft will be provided, and folks are encouraged to bring whatever project they’re currently working on.
Creating Community gatherings are take place occasionally throughout the year.
Labyrinth Writings Walks
Walking a labyrinth is a very personal experience, though some folks find sharing that time with like-minded souls mighty worthwhile, too. Labyrinth Writings Walks occur on a seasonal basis, typically in the spring, summer and fall. Small groups gather to share a short reading or two about Life, then one by one head into the labyrinth to discover what it holds for each on a contemplative afternoon.
Check back in 2025 for spring & summer dates!
Sundae Sundays
A favorite gathering for kids and adults alike, Sundae Sundays are a summer hit! Typically held once a month from May – September, Sundae Sunday is filled with ice cream and smiles following the 10:30 worship service.
