DISCIPLESHIP & COMMUNITY
LADIES’ BOOK STUDY
A Ladies’ Book Study Group will be meeting the second Saturday of each month at 10:00 AM at Danika’s home, 10034 Locust Lane, in Pasco.
Their first book will be “Mere Christianity” by C.S. Lewis.
You can purchase your own paperback or Kindle copy at Amazon or download a pdf version of the copy here from Google Docs.
LECTIO DIVINA HOME GROUP
Wednesdays at 6:30pm!
In Western Christianity, Lectio Divina (Latin for "Divine Reading") is a traditional monastic practice of scriptural reading, meditation and prayer.
In brief, with Lectio Divina, the Scripture text is not studied, but is experienced as an encounter with Christ, the Living Word, who we meet in the scriptural text. Since the passage that is read is new every week and there are no "right" answers, feel free to join anytime!
Fr. John facilitates the group at the home of Sherrill Edwards at
934 Sanford Ave in Richland.
There is no such thing as a Christian who is not also a disciple - a learner - of Jesus Christ.
But, what does it mean to be a disciple of Jesus? Simply, a disciple lives his or her life as if Jesus was living it.
I invite you to be a part of the discipleship leadership core group and to participate in our community gathering events. If we are to be Christians, then we must be disciples of Jesus who make other disciples of Jesus!
And speaking of community gatherings, as we enter the summer season, it would be a great time for our church to reach out into the community with the love of Jesus Christ through community gatherings. If your gift is hospitality, would you be interested in hosting such a gathering at your home? If so, let me know!
