Summer 2008 Discovery Class!

 

 

Your clergy are teaming up to present a series of classes to introduce visitors and newcomers to St. Matthew’s and the Episcopal Church, as well as current parishioners who would like to attend any class of interest.   This is a special summer opportunity for anyone interested in learning about our worship, history, theology, ministries, expectations—you name it!

 

The course will be held during the Sunday Education hour, 9:15-10:15, every Sunday in June, meeting in B-18.   In addition, we will hold two Saturday morning sessions—May 17 and June 29 from 9-11:30 that serve as an overview and a more in-depth introduction to the clergy and one another.   Participants are invited to attend one or the other of those.
