Connect: Adult Formation
Community Forum
We developed our after-worship Community Forum to help us grow spiritually. It's also one of the ways we grow together. Whether we're sharing the passion of one of our members, learning from contacts outside of our parish, or taking time to listen to each other, Community Forum draws us into a common learning experience.
Please consider staying with us following our 10AM Sunday worship. Check our Calendar page for this week's topic.
Discussions and Bible Studies
Discussion
About twice a year we offer multi-session discussion events on weekday evenings. Recently we explored how we can join together for Courageous Public Actions.
Bible Study
Volunteer clergy offer weekly Bible studies.
Education for Ministry (EfM)
Vigorous, multi-year study through the Episcopal Church called Education for Ministry (EfM) is available regularly. In this small-group, weekly learning experience, you’ll dive deep into the Hebrew and Christian Scriptures, church history, and Christian theology. It’s a 36 week program broken into 4 years.
Another option is an online EfM group with members from several MN parishes (including Grace!), as well as a member in another state and one in another country. It meets Monday nights from 6:30-8:30 pm via Google Meet. This group has already begun meeting but welcomes new members.
Our weekly newsletter contains more information about each of these opportunities.
