St. John’s annual Growing in Grace series allows all seekers of the faith to come together and learn more about Christianity, the Episcopal Church, and how we are to live and grow in our faith.
Growing in Grace is a spiritual renewal course for adults seeking to become part of the Episcopal Church through confirmation or reception, or for those who simply want to publicly reaffirm their faith. This year, Fr. Lonnie will lead us through “Episcopal 101” over six weeks.
This course will mean something different to each individual. Even if you’ve taken Growing in Grace before, consider joining us again, as this edition will be a unique experience (see schedule below).
Join us on Sunday, January 21, 2024, in Killeen Hall at 12:30 PM for an Open House. Clergy and lay leaders will explain the series further and answer any questions you have about confirmation, reception, and reaffirmation.
Growing in Grace takes place on Sunday afternoons from 2:30-4 PM in Killeen Hall, beginning with an off-campus retreat on Saturday, February 3 from 9 AM to 2 PM. Classes are clergy and lay leader led with small group discussion. We will provide light refreshments.
Registration has now ended, but there is always room in the classes. If you have questions about the confirmation process or would like to join this year’s class, contact Claire Dodd, Director of Communications & Membership.
