Adult Forum
Each Sunday at 9 am, we offer an adult education/formation program on the lower level. We try to present short videos or other programming that sparks discussion of spiritual practices, social justice issues, life lessons, Biblical history, and lots more. We strive to put the emphasis on discussion among ourselves and make each week accessible to all without the need to have been present the previous week. Contact: Deacon Jeanie Smith.
Bible Study
Bible Study is offered on Thursday mornings from 9:30 – 11am in the Gathering Center. Study topics have ranged from individual books of the Bible (eg Acts of the Apostles, Revelation) to historical figures/saints (eg Paul, Dietrich Bonhoeffer) to topics (eg, what happens to us when we die/who or what is the Holy Spirit). Contact: Deacon Jeanie Smith.
Books, Brew and Banter
Our book group meets weekly on Friday mornings, both via Zoom and in person in the Gathering Center from 10-11:30 am. We alternate between fiction and non-fiction, sometimes secular and sometimes spiritual. Contact: Julie Feirer.
Wednesday Night Connect
Every Wednesday at 6:30 pm, a group meets in the Gathering Center to discuss the coming weekend’s scripture readings. Contact: Deacon Jeanie Smith.
Centering Prayer
The Centering Prayer group meets each Saturday morning at 9 am in Room 133 (Lower Level). Participants engage in the spiritual practices of contemplative prayer and lectio divina. Contact: Tim Goldman.
