Called into Being

Weekly March through May

Register by February 21

Called Into Being is a ten-session program to help us discern and articulate our own callings (vocations) in the church and the world. Our approach throughout is based on telling, hearing, and joining stories: the stories God is telling in our lives, the church, the world, and at Saint Paul's. Along the way we'll touch on some Bible, theology, and methods of prayer, all directly related to our own lives and ministry. With God's help, this program will empower us to live and practice our faith with confidence and joy.

This spring, we are offering a weeknight group, but specific meeting times will be determined by the participants after sign-ups are complete.

Contact Fr. Eric. to register by Friday, February 21.
