Our Lenten Study this year, The Episcopal Church 101, will be exactly what its title suggests: an (all too brief) introduction to the larger Church of which Grace and St John’s is a part—the Church’s history, theology, liturgical practice and interface with the world.  

The four sessions will be led by the Rev. Bob Bergner and several of our lay leaders.

 

Anyone who has considered being received into The Episcopal Church will certainly benefit from an introduction to the Church they are joining.  

 

And there are probably many among us who will be happy to be reminded of both how the Episcopal Church came to be, and exactly what makes it distinctive from other Christian denominations today.  

 

In fact, pretty much all of us will find enrichment in learning more about this Church that we call home.
