Blessing of the
Skinned Knee, with The Rev. Rebekah Bokros Hatch
The hustle and bustle of life, school, work, extra-curricular activities
can easily overshadow one of our primary roles as parents: to raise a
faithful child. With the demands and expectations our society
places on families, this priority gets shifted further and further down
the list, despite our desire to do otherwise. Join us for 4 weeks
as we look at how to frame our family life in a more faithful way.
Using Wendy Mogel’s The Blessing of the Skinned Knee, we’ll gain some
insight into raising faithful, self-reliant, compassionate and ethical
children. We meet in the library.
Weekday Bible Study
Be
DOERS of the Word, not just hearers! Learn how by studying with us
The Letter of James in a 6-week Bible Study, either Tuesday mornings in
the library (Sept. 5 to Oct. 12) at 9:30 or Wednesday nights (Sept.
6—Oct. 13) at 7:30 to pray and study over the letter of James, who
writes of ‘faith and works’, or ‘mercy triumphing over judgment.’
