Sunday Mornings for Adults this Season

• January 14: For Martin Luther King weekend, we will listen to and discuss Dr. King’s sermon “On Loving Your Enemies.” This sermon is referenced inthe film A Case for Love.

• January 21: In preparation for our Annual Meeting, join us for a deeper dive into St. Thomas finances, including an update about fundraising and financing for our Making Room for All Vision Campaign.

• January 28: Our Annual Parish Meeting takes place in the Parish Hall.

• February 4 and 11: “Love thy neighbor as thyself.” Art France will lead a reflection on the second of Christ’s commandments. He writes, “This sounds simple and straight forward. Our personal experiences and observations of the world we live in suggest that this is much easier to say than to do. Over the next two weeks, we will ponder the difficulties in following this commandment. When we have just one word for love, how does this complicate our understanding of love? What are the stumbling blocks that we encounter when we try to be loving people and how are we to overcome them? How does our experience of love expand and change over our life spans?”

• Lent begins on February 14. Beginning February 18, on Sundays in Lent, we will use a video teaching series developed by Bishop Wright.
