Resurrection provides a variety of programs to promote spiritual growth and Christian discipleship. These programs take place at different times and places during the week; we seek to offer opportunities to all members of the parish family. We hope that you will review the available programs, enquire about programs that you are interested in, suggest programs that you would like to see added, and take a place as a student or leader in Christian Formation.

Sundays at Resurrection

SSundays at Resurrection offer traditional Christian Formation classes for children and adults. On Sunday mornings we offer our K4 through Grade 5 children a series of rotational classes developed by Learner Resources that provide children with a different activity each Sunday around a particular theme in the study of the Bible and the Church. These activities are led by a team of three teachers and last approximately 45 minutes. Each rotation lasts for one month.

For our middle and high school students we offer weekly discussions using the Living the Good News curriculum which helps teens to address the decisions they make from a Christian foundation.

Adult Christian Formation on Sunday mornings offers a variety of classes that change throughout the church year. We may offer one, two, or three different classes centered on a Bible study, theology, prayer, a book study or special offerings for young parents or senior adults.

On most Sunday evenings the EYC meets in the EYC room in the Parish House at 5:30. This is the primary offering for our middle and high school students. Led by Norm and Roxy Fawcett and Gratin and Adelaide Smith, EYC provides our youth with a variety of worship, work, and recreational experiences.

Wednesdays at Resurrection

Wednesdays at Resurrection offer two opportunities for study and worship.

Holy Eucharist with prayers for healing is offered at Noon.

On Wednesday evenings, we offer Eucharist and Bible study at 6:00 PM.

Once a month, Great Wednesdays include a 6:00 pm service with special music and a great supper.

Other opportunities for Spiritual growth and service

We offer a variety of other opportunities for your spiritual growth at Resurrection.

EFM (Education for Ministry). This is a four-year program from the School of Theology at Sewanee, designed for those seeking to serve Christ more deeply or who simply want to learn more about the Bible, church history, and theology. This group meets once a week at the church.

Vacation Bible School. Usually held the third week in June, VBS gives our younger children the opportunity to study, learn and play around a theme dealing with the life of Jesus and the growth of the Church. Bible school meets Monday through Friday from 9:00 AM to 12 Noon.

Episcopal Church Women. ECW is composed of two chapters that meet monthly for study, prayer, and fellowship. The women of the church also sponsor periodic special events, such as a fundraiser for our diocese’s water project in Haiti.

Daughters of the King. The Daughters of the King are an international fellowship of prayer and service. Resurrection’s chapter meets most Tuesdays at 4:00 PM.
