Two Opportunities for Spiritual Formation

In 1982 while I was serving a Church in Phoenix, Arizo-na a good friend lovingly “nudged” me to participate in a Cursillo weekend. The weekend ended up being a major milestone in my Spiritual journey with Jesus. Via de Cristo, “the way of Christ” is Cursillo today. On September 8 at 9:30 am, I will share a bit about this Spiritual gift. I personally will be helping to lead one of the three weekends (November 7-10) in the fall at Lu-theridge. 

There are other gifts of grace like TEC (Teens Encoun-ter Christ), Marriage Encounter and others that I’d love to talk with you about. Drop me an e-mail if you think you might be here on Sept 8 – JohnCPropst@gmail.com. 

Do You Have an “Inquiring Heart?” 

… about things like … 

 Growing in your faith journey with Jesus (discipleship) 

 What it means to be a Lutheran Christian...beliefs about baptism, communion, salvation, the Bible, Luther’s Small Catechism, the Trinity,, eternity, how to stay awake in Church (just seeing if you’re reading this!)...and many, many more beliefs. 

 About the ELCA, NC Synod, other denominations and how we are similar and different, about other Lutheran “flavors” 

 Maybe you wonder about the Church year (seasons, colors, etc.), the Reformation, what to bring to a Lutheran pot0-luck (still reading??) 

 Questions specific to Holy Comforter Church: mis-sion & ministry opportunities, various SS classes, how you can join our WONDERFUL choir, youth program, what membership means AND others. 

Accept this as a special invitation for you to join an “inquiring Heart Class” at Holy Comforter!
