A summer faith formation course to help you begin your faith journey or refresh
Over the summer, take some time to get “Back to the Basics.” I often hear from people that they feel like others know so much more about the Bible, faith, or being Presbyterian than they do. First, this probably isn’t true! Many of us are in the same boat, and are just starting or scratching the surface of our faith journey. And even if we have grown up in the church, it is always good to get back to the basics every now and then. So, wherever you are join us in exploring and strengthening our faith, now is as good of time as any! Over the summer there are three ways to connect: a book in each of July and August, and a video series from July 12 to August 9. These opportunities are designed to be completed at your own pace, with opportunities to connect with others throughout. Read more below to get engaged, and reach out with any questions or comments to adulteducation@myersparkpres.org.

Hey Mindy, no need to sign up. The videos and books are an “at your own pace and on your own time” experience. Feel free to read along or watch the videos and then join in the Zoom sessions if you want to engage with others. Let us know if you need help navigating the offerings. Blessings!
