Fall 2024
SUNDAY MORNING Pastor’s Study: Live Connected in Spiritual and Ecumenical Pilgrimage
We continue our 2024 Year of Renewal! On Sunday Sept 15 and Sunday Sept 22, Adult Ed will feature stories from our various pilgrimages over the summer. Come and share!
Starting Sept 29, we will focus on this theme: how do we live as Confessional Lutherans within the wider Body of Christ? What direction do we find in Scripture? What can we learn from others? How can we connect with believers of all stripes and yet be faithful to our key convictions? Pastor Clark will share from his experiences in other traditions and our Lutheran and LCMS history, as well as invite you to share from yours. Then we will examine key ideas with specific Scripture. We will consider traditions like: Roman Catholic, Eastern Orthodox, Anglican/Episcopal, Reformed & Presbyterian, Anabaptist (Mennonite, Amish), Methodist, Baptist, and Pentecostal.
When: Sundays, 9am | Where: Church Fellowship Hall
Leader: Pastor Clark
THURSDAY MORNING: “Sip, Savor, and Drink Deeply”
This Fall, the Thursday morning group will be reading and discussing “Sip, Savor, and Drink Deeply: Receive God’s Overflowing Gifts.” This book is “a celebration of the camaraderie, companionship, and comfort found in getting coffee with a friend. It’s about more than just the warm beverage; it’s about spending quality time together. This Bible study is designed to draw women closer to their Savior. Each session is based off a coffee-themed item, such as latte, java, or mocha, and contains a coffee shop recipe, discussion questions, and group activities. Women will learn to savor the sweetness of Jesus’ abundant gifts for them.”
When: Thursdays, 9am | Where: The “Library Lounge” in the Narthex
Leader: Paula Ryan (see her with any questions, or to join!)
FRIDAY NIGHT: 1 Corinthians
This year begins with a study of 1 Corinthians, followed by Isaiah as we move into 2025. If you’ve never been part of this group and would like to join, please see John Schroeder or Mike Fonck. All are welcome!
Time: Meal, 6:30pm | Study 7-8:30pm
Dates: 1st and 3rd Fridays each month
Where: Fellowship Hall
