SUMMARY:Exile & Return
DESCRIPTION:Group: Engaging the Word (Bible Series) \nRoom 201 \nLed by the Reverend Dr. Andrew Grosso \nWhen the Hebrew people were conquered by the Babylonian empire\, it prompted a complete rethinking of Hebrew faith and practice. The experience of exile in Babylon and eventual return to Israel shaped the development of Jewish belief well into the first century of the Common Era. Understanding the Babylonian captivity thus provides us with a more informed perspective on the life and ministry of Jesus and the experience of the first Christians. It also provides us with helpful insights for thinking about how we can be faithful people in our own day. Attending this series will enable you to recognize the points of contact between the Old Testament\, the New Testament\, and our own day. \n

SUMMARY:The Communion of Saints
DESCRIPTION:Group: Faith and Practice Series \nRoom 203 \nLed by the Clergy \nThe calendar of the church year is a surprisingly rich resource for helping us live faithful lives. Not only does the calendar help us observe the seasonal rhythms of the church year\, it also introduces us to the “great cloud of witnesses” (Heb 12.1) who walk with us on our earthly pilgrimage. This series will introduce us to some of the remarkable individuals who are recognized on the calendar and will explore ways their example and teachings can be of help to us today. If you’ve always wondered what you could possibly have in common with Wulfstan\, Thomas Ken\, Catherine of Siena\, and others like them\, this series is an excellent opportunity to find out.
