October 30, Orders of Ministry: Shaping the Church for Life

Roving workshop presented by Bishop Dan Edwards, 9AM-Noon, St. Bartholomew's, Ely

The workshop will look at the roles of laity, priests, deacons, and bishops. Who is responsible for what? What's up to the vestry and warden? What's up to the priest? What's up to the deacon? What is a rector, a priest in charge, an assistant? How can we best share the ministries so that we all grow and God is glorified?

 

DVDs bring knowledge and fellowship...

Did you know that St. Paul's owns DVDs (and a few audio CDs) which are at the core of adult Christian formation? Donated by Father Lee Bossart a few years ago, they are available to any of us to view individually or in groups. In addition, the Diocese of Nevada owns many of the same DVDs, plus a few others, which are archived right here at St. Paul's and are loaned out to people within the Diocese. Of course, since we are a part of the Diocese of Nevada they are also available to us.

If you are thinking of starting a Bible study group, but aren't sure how to go about it, these are great discussion starters. They are also good for individual study. If you are interested in borrowing any, please see Kay or Karen.
