SUMMARY:Adult Formation
DESCRIPTION:The word “formation” is more than just Episcopal jargon for Sunday School or Christian Education. When we come together in community to study and pray and discuss the ways of God\, we are being shaped and reshaped by new ideas and the perspectives of others. Sometimes we get a glimpse of God and of who God calls us to be. \n  \nFebruary 22 – March 15: Sunday Scripture: Lenten Lectionary Edition (Bethlehem Chapel) \nThe Biblical texts for Lent are rich with meaning. Come explore\, discuss\, and learn more about these passages that sometimes just wash over us in church. We’ll take a closer look at each of the readings appointed for each Sunday\, and you’ll come away with a different perspective on our weekly worship. \n  \nMarch 22: The Hospitality Hub in the Bethlehem Chapel \nCalvary helped found the HUB in 2007\, and we continue to partner with them as we care for our downtown neighbors. Learn more about their vital work and what it means to serve those who are unhoused holistically and with compassion. \n  \nMarch 29: A Closer Look at Palm Sunday (Bethlehem Chapel) \nA lot happens in our Palm Sunday liturgy as we move from the entrance of Jesus into Jerusalem all the way to his crucifixion. We’ll take a careful look at the first part of the story that sometimes gets lost in the roller coaster of events. \n  \nApril 5: Easter Sunday\, no formation

SUMMARY:Adult Formation
DESCRIPTION:The word “formation” is more than just Episcopal jargon for Sunday School or Christian Education. When we come together in community to study and pray and discuss the ways of God\, we are being shaped and reshaped by new ideas and the perspectives of others. Sometimes we get a glimpse of God and of who God calls us to be. \n  \nFebruary 22 – March 15: Sunday Scripture: Lenten Lectionary Edition (Bethlehem Chapel) \nThe Biblical texts for Lent are rich with meaning. Come explore\, discuss\, and learn more about these passages that sometimes just wash over us in church. We’ll take a closer look at each of the readings appointed for each Sunday\, and you’ll come away with a different perspective on our weekly worship. \n  \nMarch 22: The Hospitality Hub in the Bethlehem Chapel \nCalvary helped found the HUB in 2007\, and we continue to partner with them as we care for our downtown neighbors. Learn more about their vital work and what it means to serve those who are unhoused holistically and with compassion. \n  \nMarch 29: A Closer Look at Palm Sunday (Bethlehem Chapel) \nA lot happens in our Palm Sunday liturgy as we move from the entrance of Jesus into Jerusalem all the way to his crucifixion. We’ll take a careful look at the first part of the story that sometimes gets lost in the roller coaster of events. \n  \nApril 5: Easter Sunday\, no formation

SUMMARY:Adult Formation
DESCRIPTION:The word “formation” is more than just Episcopal jargon for Sunday School or Christian Education. When we come together in community to study and pray and discuss the ways of God\, we are being shaped and reshaped by new ideas and the perspectives of others. Sometimes we get a glimpse of God and of who God calls us to be. \n  \nFebruary 22 – March 15: Sunday Scripture: Lenten Lectionary Edition (Bethlehem Chapel) \nThe Biblical texts for Lent are rich with meaning. Come explore\, discuss\, and learn more about these passages that sometimes just wash over us in church. We’ll take a closer look at each of the readings appointed for each Sunday\, and you’ll come away with a different perspective on our weekly worship. \n  \nMarch 22: The Hospitality Hub in the Bethlehem Chapel \nCalvary helped found the HUB in 2007\, and we continue to partner with them as we care for our downtown neighbors. Learn more about their vital work and what it means to serve those who are unhoused holistically and with compassion. \n  \nMarch 29: A Closer Look at Palm Sunday (Bethlehem Chapel) \nA lot happens in our Palm Sunday liturgy as we move from the entrance of Jesus into Jerusalem all the way to his crucifixion. We’ll take a careful look at the first part of the story that sometimes gets lost in the roller coaster of events. \n  \nApril 5: Easter Sunday\, no formation

SUMMARY:Adult Formation
DESCRIPTION:The word “formation” is more than just Episcopal jargon for Sunday School or Christian Education. When we come together in community to study and pray and discuss the ways of God\, we are being shaped and reshaped by new ideas and the perspectives of others. Sometimes we get a glimpse of God and of who God calls us to be. \n  \nFebruary 22 – March 15: Sunday Scripture: Lenten Lectionary Edition (Bethlehem Chapel) \nThe Biblical texts for Lent are rich with meaning. Come explore\, discuss\, and learn more about these passages that sometimes just wash over us in church. We’ll take a closer look at each of the readings appointed for each Sunday\, and you’ll come away with a different perspective on our weekly worship. \n  \nMarch 22: The Hospitality Hub in the Bethlehem Chapel \nCalvary helped found the HUB in 2007\, and we continue to partner with them as we care for our downtown neighbors. Learn more about their vital work and what it means to serve those who are unhoused holistically and with compassion. \n  \nMarch 29: A Closer Look at Palm Sunday (Bethlehem Chapel) \nA lot happens in our Palm Sunday liturgy as we move from the entrance of Jesus into Jerusalem all the way to his crucifixion. We’ll take a careful look at the first part of the story that sometimes gets lost in the roller coaster of events. \n  \nApril 5: Easter Sunday\, no formation
