The Episcopal Church has a particular culture of spirituality that shapes its worship, thinking and action. It is a way of being and doing that rises out of several core values and assumptions about our existence as people and Christians. Explore how it works at St Alban’s and in your own life by joining us for a series of three sessions in September.
Some of the areas we will explore:
The program is a mix of presentation, discussion and experiential activities. Participants are asked to complete some short readings and to experiment with some form of spiritual discipline on your own in between sessions.Since each session builds on the others, we ask that you agree to attend all three sessions when registering.
