Adult Forum Starts-Up on Sunday
Dr. Carrie Doehring , Professor of Pastoral Care at Iliff School of Theology and in the joint PhD program with the University of Denver, will open the Forum's first fall series on September 17 with a talk on "Moral Stress and Spiritual Struggles: Self-care that fosters resilience." The series, titled " Spiritual Survival Tools for Stressful Times ," will alternate talks by guest speakers with opportunities for parishioners to share spiritual resources that have helped them with difficult or stressful situations. 

For the next session on Sept. 24, plan to bring your favorite Bible or poetry readings, a song or a spiritual practice to share.
St. Barnabas Goes to the Movies!
Who wants to see ET: The Extra Terrestrial on the big screen? ALL Barnabites are invited to join us as one big family, Sunday, Sept. 17, 2pm at Regal Riverpoint Stadium Theater.

There are several restaurants in that area to eat, including Panera, Steak n Shake, and more. Gather a group of friends and make a day of it!

Click here to buy tickets, or buy them in person. See you at the movies!
Sign the Cards to Share the Care
Almost every Sunday Sher Mangan, on behalf of the Share the Care committee, prepares greeting cards for people who are sick, facing an operation, recovering from a hospital stay or grieving the loss of a loved one. Please look out for the cards in Lukens and sign them. The recipients are always tremendously grateful for this sign of our care.

Make this a habit every Sunday. Many thanks!


Adult Forum - Weekday Service Proposed
Adult Faith Formation is seeking interested parishioners to attend a Study Service to be held at St. Barnabas on Wednesday evenings. Participants will read materials on Biblical or theological topics which the group has selected. Examples would be exploring a book of the Bible more deeply using internet-sourced commentary or examining the concept of Forgiveness as presented in The Return of the Prodigal Son by Henri Nouwen. The format will include introduction by a lay leader, sharing and prayer requests, discussion of the selected topic, and closing with the Compline service from the Book of Common Prayer.

If interested, please contact Chris Bauer. Details are still flexible so please get in touch even if the day or time won't work for you -- we may modify to suit the group.

The Garden Committee is working with Phase One Landscapes to develop a design for our plant and flower beds, and we want your input! We hope to have a preliminary design to present after the Sunday services in one or two weeks. Please contact Jim Hayes or Janet Manning to get involved.
