Education for Ministry class is starting in Fall. Lay-persons face the difficult and often subtle task of interpreting the richness of the church’s faith in a complex and confusing world. They need a theological education that supports their faith and helps them to connect that faith to their daily lives. The EfM program provides people with an opportunity to discover how to respond to the call to Christian service and carry out their ministries.

An information meeting will be held Monday, August 26, at 7:00 p.m., on Zoom. Contact Deacon Tim Spannaus at deacon@tspannaus.com for further information, including the link to the meeting.
