Episcopal Beliefs and Practices
Walk In Love: Episcopal Beliefs and Practices- Our fall devotion and study this year will be using the book, “Walk In Love” by Scott Gunn and Melody Wilson Shobe. This course will take a journey through The Book of Common Prayer, the Christian life, and basic beliefs of our faith and covers topic such as the liturgical year, the sacraments of the church, habits of daily prayer, and the teachings of Anglican Christianity. See how our prayer shapes our belief and our lives and how our beliefs lead us into a deeper relationship with Jesus Christ.
Even though we pray the words of The Book of Common Prayer each week, many of us don’t know where these prayers come from, what they mean, or how they call us to live daily lives of faith. Each week, participants will gather for a short lecture on one section of The Book of Common Prayer, exploring what each liturgy says and how it is typically used in our communities.
Sessions run Wednesday Evenings from September 8 - November 10, 2021, beginning with Evening prayer at 6:00pm. Adult Formation is at 7:00. The gatherings will be on Zoom. See Below for the Link.
