Adult Faith Formation

From our first breath to our last, each of us are forever growing, maturing, developing, and changing in so many ways. The path of human development unfolds with each and every new day. Spiritual development is also a life long process, as each of us slowly matures a vibrant spiritual life of faith that shapes all we are and all we do. Throughout the year, we offer many opportunities for you to grow, mature, develop and change. Here is a snapshot of ongoing opportunities that will enrich your life of faith.

Sunday Mornings

God's World Discovery Hour

Adult faith development takes place at 9:15 most Sunday mornings.  We begin in the lounge or patio for an opening and then head to the Chapel for each session. Starting April 6th, Pastor Holly will do a gospel's comparison study.  Discover how each of the stories of Jesus life are a deep reflection of the context within which each author constructed the story.

 

All Adults

Faith and Film Night

All are invited to our next “Faith & Film” on Tuesday, March 25th at 7:00. “Faith & Film” nights are an opportunity to gather as a community to discuss different elements of faith and spirituality in current films. This month we will be exploring the new film “Into the Wild The Fellowship Team invites all those who are interested in this gathering to watch the movie before the meeting and come prepared to discuss issues of how we find peace within ourselves.  Bring a batch of your favorite dessert to share. If you have any questions please contact Pastor Holly (283-3722 ext. 221).

The Tank

The tank comes together throughout the year to provide a format to discuss relevant and controversial issues.  Designed to foster dialogue from various points of view, each session revolves around a particular theme.  Presenters come prepared having done some research on the topic.  following a summary of the issues, we open the floor and allow for a lively moderated discussion of the night's topic. Stay tuned for our next big event.

Retreats

Annual Spring or Fall Retreat
There are times in your life you are overwhelmed, unsure, or that things are going too fast. A retreat can bring you back to center, clearing your mind, so God's spirit can speak, and renew and refresh. A retreat is also a means of meeting other people like you. Our annual retreat has great surroundings, an awesome speaker, time for old and new friends, excellent food and accomodations, space for rest and recreation, and programming for all ages. Call Pastor Holly at 283-3722 to learn what is on the horizon, or ask any of the folks who attended the last one!
