What’s happening…
A
Newcomers/Inquirer’s/Confirmation Class continues. This class will meet each Sunday
in June in the Saint Luke’s Library at 9:15 a.m. In this course we’ll discuss
the Sacraments and their meanings, church history, along with the origins of
the Episcopal Church, the way that we approach this Christian faith of ours,
and what difference it makes to you. Everyone is welcome, you don’t have to be
new!
I
The Parish Office will be closed Wednesday, July 4th
in observance of Independence Day.
New Foyer Groups Begin in August. Foyer groups are an easy and enjoyable way for parishioners to get to
know one another – especially newcomers and folks who go to different services
– in an informal social setting. Once each month, over a four month period,
group members meet at one another’s home or at a restaurant for a simple
dinner, to get to know each other. Each
time groups are reassigned to meet new people. If you are interested, please
sign up on the bulletin board near the parish office or contact Bob or Fran
Beare at 731-444-1000.
Christian
Education for Adults…
The
Tuesday evening Bible study led
by Gene Davenport meets each week at 7:00 p.m. We are now studying the Book of
Acts and all of you are invited. The class is in discussion formant and is not
a lecture.
The Wednesday Morning Bible Study led by Dr. Brady Whitehead is on break for the
summer. Classes will resume after Rally Day.
The Upper Room Class will go
on summer hiatus after May 20. There will be no adult Sunday school starting
the weekend of Memorial Day. We will resume on Rally Day in the fall, when we
will begin a study of comparative religions. Our study will be centered on
Huston Smith’s book, The Worlds Religions.
