Sacred Conversations | Exploring Orientation, Disorientation, and Reorientation in the Spiritual Life - Led by Elizabeth Nunley and Amanda Phillips in the Gym

What if deeper spiritual formation happens in circles instead of rows? What if the most meaningful spiritual growth begins with an honest conversation?

Join us to explore the three movements of the spiritual life: orientation, disorientation, and reorientation. Through brief teaching and meaningful conversation in small groups, we will create space to listen well, share honestly, and to know and be known more deeply.

This 3-week class is for those who are new/new-ish and want to get to know people's stories here at St. Bs. Or, if you’ve been here for 25 years, it’s a great way to get to meet people who you might not know yet and get to learn new stories.

We are in need of additional volunteers at the 11:00 AM service to serve at the prayer desk. This is an important ministry of St. B’s and if you have a calling to pray for others and/or have questions, please contact Pam MacArthur at pmacarthur@me.com.

There are still openings for flower dedications for the remainder of the year. Flowers may be given in thanksgiving, celebration, or in memory of a loved one or event. Email Charity at cvoiles@stbs.net or sign up here.

The Welcome Team rotates through the various Sundays each month in teams of 3-4 preparing the coffee enjoyed at each service as well as welcoming all arrivals. Particular attention is paid to "new" or visiting folks by introducing ourselves and making sure these folks get to meet one of the clergy or vestry.  Contact Amy in the church office to get on the rotation list.
