Confirmation Classes - Adults & Senior High School
|  Begins Sunday, August 5
The Sacrament of Confirmation is the rite by which we make a mature profession of our faith before the Bishop and take on responsibility for our faith and membership in the Church. This is an important sacrament for everyone. If you are new to the Episcopal Church, if you're new to the parish even, or if you in high school and have not yet been confirmed, you should participate in this year's Confirmation Preparation Class (also known as the Inquirer's Class). Classes begin on Sunday August 5. More information, schedule, and an online sign-up can be found on the parish website. Confirmation Mass will be Sunday, September 9 at 11:15 am here at St. Columba's during Bishop Alexander's annual visit to the parish.

|  Kicks Off September 9
The Fall schedule of Adult Sunday school and weekday Christian formation programs is now online. The Rector's forum begins with a mulit-part series, "Blessed To Be An Episcopalian," and Bishop Alexander will be the keynote speaker launching this series.
During the week, we'll resume our Growing In Faith Wednesday night program beginning with a study in Christian mission & service: Get Uncomfortable: Serve the Poor. Stop Injustice. Change the World...In Jesus' Name. Then beginning in November we will begin a series entitled, "Reel Faith." Our Thursday Bible Study resumes in September and will focus on The Gospel of St. John.

Information & Orientation Meeting
| Sunday, August 4 OR Wednesday, August 8
Even though we are in the midst of the summer break, it's time to begin preparing for our coming year of Sunday school! Teachers are needed for the elementary school grades especially. If you would be interested in being part of this year's team of teachers, we would love to have you! No experience is necessary; all teachers work in teams of 3 or 4 per class. The meeting is for those who would like to teach as well as those who would like more information as they consider if God is calling them to teach Sunday school this coming year.
Training and an overview of the curriculum will be provided on Saturday, August 4 from 3:00-4:00 pm and also on Wednesday, August 8 from 6:30-7:30 pm. If you have any questions, please speak with any of last year's teachers, Linda Reid, or Catherine Bonnet. Please prayerfully consider joining this growing, vital ministry of the parish!
