MEETING CHURCH AGAIN FOR THE FIRST TIME

For A Refresher Course on What’s New and What’s Not

with Trinity Church and the Episcopal Tradition

Join us with your questions

Asking questions is at the heart of the Episcopal tradition. We are the inheritors of a tradition that began in the 16th century with an English king questioning a Pope’s ruling. (Actually, the questions go back to Jesus of Nazareth, whose questions challenged the rulers of his day.)

We invite you to come be part of the questions! Participate in the Anglican tradition of creating theology through challenge and testing and pushing at the boundaries of convention. Learn about the roots of our church, the breadth and depth of our faith, and our hope for the future.

We invite you to learn more about the faith that energizes life at Trinity, to “update” your theological education, or to prepare for confirmation in the Episcopal Church, come be part of “Meeting Church Again for the First Time” a nine-week series of classes held each fall and spring at Trinity. Check dates and times at the Welcome Table on Sunday mornings.

Text: Marcus Borg, Meeting Jesus Again for the First Time. $12, available at meeting.

Childcare can be arranged and the cost shared among those who need it. Contact Bill Ferguson.

For more information, please contact The Rev. Anne Howard or The Rev. Mark Asman


What does the Episcopal Church believe about stem cell research? What's the big deal about those "breakaway" bishops ordained this summer in Denver? Why do some people kneel in church and some stand up when we pray? What's the difference between "traditional" and "conservative" and "liberal" and "post-modern." What about the Bible?

Asking questions is at the heart of the Episcopal tradition. We are the inheritors of a tradition that began in the 16th century with an English king questioning a Pope's ruling. Actually, the questions go back to Jesus of Nazareth, whose questions challenged the rulers of his day.

Come be part of the questions! Participate in the Anglican tradition of creating theology through challenge and testing and pushing at the boundaries of convention. Learn about the roots of our church, the breadth and depth of our faith, and our hope for the future. Come be part of "Meeting Church Again for the First Time". Classes are scheduled for Spring and Fall.

This series of classes will help you get oriented to life at Trinity, "update" your theological education, and prepare you for confirmation in the Episcopal Church.
