This is the place to look for new Christian Formation and other discovery opportunities both in and outside of the parish.
The Sabbath Economics class is starting its own blog. Look for the links to that on this page.
Exploration & Discovery
Jubilee and Sabbath Economics
BIBLICAL VISION OF SABBATH ECONOMICS
The class has ended but the discussion goes on. The Sabbath Economics Blog has notes from the class and and an invitation to take part in the discussion.
With the Jubilee Act for eliminating the burden of debt from poverty-stricken nations pending in Congress, efforts to reach the UN Millennium Development Goals, and the urgency of pressing energy, environmental and development concerns, now is the time to join with others for action.
St. Michael's Book Club
We have begun a new thing at St. Michael's: St. Michael’s Book Club. We gather on the last Sunday evening of the month from the end of September through the end of May, excluding December and January, to discuss a particular book.
We’re currently considering a number of possible books for this group to discuss in future meetings, so if you have any suggestions, we’d love to hear them.
For further information, to suggest a book, or to sign up for this group, please contact the Rector via the Contact Page.
Lambeth Conference video journals available for viewing
A series of 10 video journals featuring more than 30 bishops from around the world who attended the 2008 Lambeth Conference of the Anglican Communion is now available for viewing at Trinity Wall Street's website www.trinitywallstreet.org.
Produced for the Lambeth Conference by Trinity Wall Street, the video journals were shown at the outset of each conference day, introducing participants to the daily thematic focus. The journals portray the personal experiences of bishops and spouses as they relate to that day's theme and include segments that capture the life of the conference.
The videos run approximately five minutes in length and address topics ranging from evangelism, social justice and the environment to engagement in a multi-faith world and the abuse of power. Bishops in the videos include Rowan Williams, Archbishop of Canterbury; Daniel Deng Bul Yak, Archbishop of Sudan; Miguel Tamayo, Bishop of Uruguay; Edward Malecdan, Bishop of Northern Philippines; David Beetge, Bishop of Highveld, South Africa; Victoria Matthews, Bishop of Christchurch, New Zealand; Alexander John Malik, Bishop of Lahore, Pakistan; and Mark Sisk, Bishop of New York.
