Two New Adult Spiritual Formation Opportunities 

Hello Milwaukie Family,
 
Beginning in February we have two new Adult Spiritual Formation opportunities. 
 
The Gospel of Matthew- starting on Sunday, February 11 at 9:30am at the church we will be going deeper into the Gospel of Matthew.  This will take us through March 24th.  If you are interested in being part of this class, please read Matthew 1-7 for the class on February 11.
 
Faith, Patriotism, and Politics - Beginning on Thursday, February 29th at 6:30pm we will be spending some time discussing together Faith, Patriotism and Politics.  How do we define these three, often connected but very different, things?  Where do they intersect?  Where should they intersect?  And where shouldn’t they intersect? 
 
This is an election year, and it seems as though it will be both hotly contested and divisive, bringing out passionate responses in all Americans, including Christians and the church.  How do we find common ground to talk about these issues without becoming just as negative and divisive as the rest of the world?  How do we remain connected as sisters and brothers in Christ when we may hold very different views?
 
This class will go at least three weeks, but may extend for a few more depending on the conversation.
