Adult Christian Formation

Pilgrim's Path for Newcomers
Wednesdays 7:00 p.m. following Evening Prayer at 5:30 and dinner at 6:00 p.m.

Are you looking to join the church, learn what it means to be an Episcopalian, or be baptized or confirmed as an adult? If so, you are invited to join this class beginning September 24. The class meets every Wednesday night for nine weeks except for holidays. The Pilgrim’s Path is designed to provide a grounding in the Anglican ethos, with introductory material in the areas of theology, the Bible, The Book of Common Prayer, the creeds, liturgy, and prayer. This class is also the required preparation for those adults seeking baptism or confirmation and is recommended for those from other denominations who would like to join the Episcopal Church. The clergy will present a topical lecture each week, followed by small group work in which the night’s topic is discussed and the Bible is studied. You will discover new friendships in your small group. The class schedule will convene in two sessions which you may choose from:

First 10-week session: September 24 - December 17
Second 10-week session: January 14 - March 25

Participants who attend either session may be baptized, confirmed, reaffirmed or received into the Episcopal Church in the spring during the Bishop’s visitation. Contact: Dana Corsello to register, 355-1779, ext.19 or dcorsello@doers.org.
