Practicing our Faith, The Way of Jesus:
This 3-week series, taught by the Revs. Hank Mitchel and Melissa McCarthy, is designed especially for those seeking to deepen their relationships with God, with each other, and with Christian community as well as those new to the Church of the Epiphany. Each evening will begin with a light dinner followed by a short presentation, discussion, and will conclude with a service of night prayer called Compline. This is a great way to meet new people, to learn about the Way of Jesus and Christian faith, as well as a great resource to jumpstart a renewed focus on your spiritual life. 6:30 - 9:00 p.m. Wednesdays, January 9, 16, and 23.
