Adults
Deepening, strengthening, and enriching our lives in God and with our neighbor is the purpose of Christian Formation. Learning and growing in the knowledge and love of the Lord is the calling of all Christians. In the Anglican tradition, we at the Episcopal Church of the Advent engage scripture, tradition, and reason, as we increase our understanding and become mature disciples of Christ.
