Lenten Study Series - Unbinding The Gospel

Monday, Feb 27 - Apr 2 : 6:30 pm

Join us on Monday evenings during Lent as we participate in a deanery-wide study program, following the program: "Unbinding the Gospel: Real Life Evangelism" by The Rev. Martha Grace Reese. Each session will begin with Evening Prayer and a soup supper.

Unbinding the Gospel

“Unbinding the Gospel” is a program of spiritual transformation that seeks to help us deepen our personal faith in Christ, develop a daily prayer routine, read the Gospels in a new light, and share our faith journey with others. For more information, click the book cover to the left. The book is also available from amazon.

This is an Area Ministry project of our deanery. We are joining with St. Clare’s, Pleasanton and St. Timothy’s, Danville, to separately work through this program. After Easter, the 3 churches will get together to review the program and decide what the next steps should be.
