Our Common Life: Practicing Spirituality

There is an educational shift occurring in the Episcopal Church - from "learning about" God to "knowing" God.  The 2011-12 Adult Forum program will focus on the causes of this shift and ancient practices that will help us through this transition.  This month's schedule is as follows:

• September 11 [Father Parkin, presenter]
  Welcome and Introduction
• September 18 [Father Hardman, presenter]
  The Times are Certainly Changing: The Emerging Church
• September 25 [Father Hardman, presenter]
  Incarnational World View
• October 2 [Clergy Presentation]
  A Renewed Theology of Creation
  
  

The Adult Forum is held on Sunday morning from 10:00-10:45am in the Great Hall and includes presentations by clergy, parishioners and guest speakers. All adults - young and old, newcomers and longtime parishioners - are invited to join us for this time of Christian fellowship.  New this year is an alternative small group discussion which will meet at that same time once a month in the library.  Topics will generally be geared towards a specific group and discussion will be focused but informal. The fall schedule includes:

• September 18 ~ Welcome to our Newcomers
• October 16 ~ Caring for our Children: Peer Pressure
• November 27 ~ A Family Advent
