The Practice of Community

We’re offering a four-week study on the practice of “Community,” with three opportunities to join.

Choose the time and setting that works best for you:
Wednesdays at 6 PM – Fellowship Hall | Facilitated by Bill Hodgeman (begins October 1)
Thursdays at 7 PM – on Zoom | Facilitated by Cathie McCoy & Bob Goss (begins October 2)
Sundays at 8:45 AM – The Study | Facilitated by Pierre Willems (begins October 5)

Despite the unprecedented connectivity of the modern era, genuine community is vanishing. Isolation, transience, and superficiality can sabotage our formation into people of mature love. But through Jesus, we enter a new kind of family that offers intimacy, joy, healing, and commitment. Join us as we learn and practice the spiritual formation of community.

The Practice of Generosity

Wednesdays at 6pm - Fellowship Hall | Facilitated by Bill Hodgeman (begins October 29)

When Jesus said there is more joy in giving than in receiving, he turned our vision of the good life on its head. Through the practice of generosity, we tap into God’s joy, find freedom from greed through contentment, and embody God’s concern for those in need. Join us for this four-week study on Wednesdays as we explore The Practice of Generosity.

The Practice of Sabbath

Sundays at 8:45am - The Study | Facilitated by Pierre Willems (begins November 2)

Sabbath is a twenty-four hour time period set aside to stop, rest, delight, and worship. It is the best day of the week. In our era of chronic exhaustion, emotional unhealth, and spiritual stagnation, few things are more necessary than the recovery of this ancient practice. Join us for this four-week study on Sunday mornings as we embrace The Practice of Sabbath.

The Practice of Prayer

Facilitator | Pierre Willems

Whether you’re new to the faith and curious about how to pray, or you’ve tried praying before but found it difficult or boring, you’re welcome to join us as we explore and practice prayer together. As the study guide says, "Prayer is simply the medium through which we communicate and commune with God. The practice of prayer is learning to set aside dedicated time to intentionally be with God, in order to become like him and partner with him in the world." All are welcome!
