Dear parishioners and friends of Saint James' Church Texarkana:
Our first chance to gather for Adult Formation/Study is upon us. It will be good to “get back in the saddle” of regular parish activities on Wednesday. I, for one, have missed the opportunity to gather with fellow Christians to study together, and I hope that you will join us for this time of fellowship and formation.
Our first study will be a four-session study focusing on the concept of holiness in both Testaments of the Holy Scripture. We will study together what holiness is, how it is understood in the Torah, the Prophets, and in the teachings of Christ Jesus. The continual question for us will be how to apply the Biblical teachings to our daily lives and how the practice of holiness impacts our faith in and experience of God.
In November, we will turn our attention to the lives of some lesser known saints of the Church and seek to discover what their examples can teach us about how to live as Christian’s in our contemporary culture.
Please join us as we study together, and may God bless you always,
Rev. Dave Halt, SSC
