January 2012 Offerings
Rector's Bible Study: The Extracanonical Gospels Monday mornings 10:00 a.m. to 11:30 a.m.
A study of early Christian documents that were not included in the official canon of the New Testament. Come and study and discuss whether these should have been included, or if not, what reasons existed for the decision. Some documents to be included in the study are the Gospel of Thomas, Gospel of Signs, Dialogue of the Savior, Gospel of Peter, Egerton Gospel, Secret Book of James and Gospel of Mary. No previous experience in biblical studies required. Some teach, some learn, some talk, some listen. Come with what you know and with what you don’t know. It is all beneficial to the whole.
Women Who Wonder Thursday mornings 10:00 a.m. to 11:30 a.m. starting January 12
This is a discussion group format for women, whose subject matter will be themed in monthly units. The focus will be on our spirituality as experienced in movies, art, poetry, and writing. Participation by the month is encouraged.
Sacred Space for Grace Friday mornings 10:00 a.m. to 11:30 a.m. starting January 20
A 6-week support group for those experiencing loss. We seek to provide a warm, safe, and affirming community for you to share your story of loss – be it a death, change in marital or work status, move, or other loss – and to find common bonds with others.

Meditation Groups
Ministry Opportunity
If adult spiritual formation is your calling, if you have a program you would like to suggest or plan or offer, or if you are looking for a ministry at Redeemer, we would love to talk with you about your ideas or interest in joining our ministry. Please let any member of the Christian Formation Committee or Redeemer's clergy know of your interest. We'd love to hear from you.
We look forward to your participation in one or more of our programs!
