Monday Night Online Study
Returns, Monday , April 17 at 7:00 pm
This four-week series is called Embracing and Adult Faith with Marcus Borg on "What it Means to Be Christian." It is especially important during this time in our history to reclaim the word "Christian" and move it into the light. This four-week study will focus on 1) Who was Jesus?; 2) Who Is God?; 3) What is Salvation?; and 4) How Do We Practice Our Faith?
Join Fr. Don and Mel as they co-lead this study on Zoom at 7 p.m.
Women's Contemplative Group

Thursday Bible Study
In person Thursday mornings at 10 am
Returns on April 13
This season will be a study called "ProFuture Faith with Rev. Michael Dowd. Having “squandered our inheritance on profligate living,” we are a prodigal species. Industrial civilization and our insatiable appetites have us hurtling toward irreversible consequences—not in some distant future, but right now. The good news is it’s not too late. At the intersection of science, spirituality, and sustainability is a deep love of life and a passion for our posterity—a ProFuture Faith. 8 weeks, last session is June 1.
Join eco-theologian, author, and TEDx speaker, Rev. Michael Dowd in a dynamic DVD and internet-based discussion course that bridges the gap between head and heart, science and faith. Click to watch video.
Participants will be guided on a journey that accepts what is inevitable, avoids what is futile, and be inspired to attend to what is urgent. Come home to reality. Embrace a ProFuture Faith!
