Adult Formation

 
Spiritual Formation

     Spiritual Formation meets on Monday mornings at 6:30 a.m. in Wamego McDonald’s meeting room for breakfast and reflection on a spiritual book.   We read books that will enrich our spiritual life including several of Margaret Guenther’s books and Katharine Jefferts-Schori book “A Wing and a Prayer.”  Come join us for stimulating conversation.    Contact Cinnie Hill for more information. 
 
Bible Study

     Bible study is a lay lead study directed toward personal, religious and spiritual practice.  St. Luke’s study meets for one hour every Tuesday morning at 10:00 A.M. and uses the Serendipity Bible as its guide.   Current study is the Gospel of Luke, led by Emily Benson.  Contact Cinnie Hill for more information.


Cursillo

      Cursillo is a movement of the church. Its purpose is to help those in the church understand their individual callings to be Christian Leaders. The leadership may be exercised in work situations, in the family and social life, in leisure activities, and within the Church environment. Leadership, in Cursillo, does not mean power over others, but influence on others; All need to be aware that one can exert a positive influence on those around them.  Contact Myrline Winkler at St. Luke’s or visit the CURSILLO website.

 
 

EfM 
     As the emphasis on lay ministry has grown, the Education for Ministry (EfM) program has played a crucial role in developing theologically informed, knowledgeable lay leaders.  Theological education familiarizes individuals with the foundations of the Christian faith and teaches them how to interpret and express that faith in daily life. The program also helps lay people discern ways to live into their baptismal covenant.
     Since its beginning in 1975, more  than 60,000 people have enrolled in EfM, an international program that spans the United States and includes Anglican dioceses in Australia, Canada, New Zealand and Europe. EfM currently has 8,500 students enrolled in 1,000 groups and also offers EfM online. Students sign up one year at a time for this four-year program, which covers the basics of Old and New Testaments, church history, and theology.
