Christian Formation
We believe that Christian formation at St. John's is important for all, ranging from the youngest to the oldest! We have programs for adults (to which older youth/teens are welcome), programs specific to older youth when applicable, and our program for younger children.
Below are the programs we currently have for adults.
Lectio Divina
Bishop Heyd and Bishop Shin are helping congregations to read scripture together using the ancient tools of our faith and the weekly lectionary Gospel reading. This practice of lectio divina, or “divine reading” will be part of our adult formation in small groups here at St. John's. One of the groups at St. John's will be online only at 8:00 pm Thursday evenings. Contact Margaret if you'd like to be part of this or if you would like to organize another group either in person or online. It should last about 30 minutes and includes prayer, study, and learning about a spiritual practice. The link is below. Pick up a scripture insert packet on Sunday as we will be looking at the Gospel coming up the following Sunday. Bishop Heyd and Bishop Shin will lead support for congregational participation together. They will hold a weekly zoom that anyone can join. (Sign up here.)
