Why We Worship: Encountering God in the Episcopal Liturgy

September 20–October 25

Every Sunday we sing, pray, hear Scripture, exchange the Peace, gather around the Eucharistic table, and are sent back into the world. We know the pattern—but what does it all mean? Join Father John for a new six-week adult formation series exploring worship from the inside out. Together we will ask why Christians worship, why we sing and pray together, how Scripture addresses and shapes us, what happens in the Eucharist, and how the words, gestures, symbols, silence, and movement of Episcopal liturgy help us encounter God.

This series will be conversation- and discussion-based, using our own experience of Sunday worship as a starting point. Whether Episcopal worship has been part of your life for decades or is still new to you, come explore not simply what we do in worship, but why we do it—and what worship may be doing in us.

We will gather in the Library after the service each Sunday, September 20 through October 25.
