5 Adult Faith Formation Sunday Morning Offerings 9:45 am Rally Day Celebration Join us Sunday, September 7 at 9:45 am in the Sanctuary as we begin a new Sunday School year and learn about faith formation opportunities this fall. After our Opening Celebration we will participate in the God s Work, Our Hands project in Price Hall. CARITAS Boot Camp Join Kim Johnson and members of the CARITAS team in the Chapel, as they provide details on the ins and outs of our ministry to and with our guests who will be with us October Living the Questions 2.0 Join Pastor Tom Bosserman, beginning, Sunday, September 20 in Price Hall. People know that at its core, Christianity has something good to offer humanity. At the same time, many have a sense that they are alone in being a Christian and that "salvaging" Christianity is a hopeless task. What is needed is a safe environment where people have permission to ask the questions they've always wanted to ask but have been afraid to voice for fear of being thought a heretic. Living the Questions is for both seekers and "church alumni/ae" convinced that Christianity still has relevance in the 21st Century. Providing a variety of topics, Living the Questions helps people explore the future of Christianity and what a meaningful faith can look like in today's world. Roots & Practices of Lutheran Christians -Join our called staff, beginning Sunday, September 27 in the Chapel for conversations based on the Lutheran Christian faith. This class is ideal for new(er) members to Epiphany and those who want a refresher on Lutheran beliefs. A book will be available for participants. Tuesday Morning & Wednesday Evening Offerings Jeremiah & Lamentations Join us Tuesday mornings, beginning September 15 at 10:30 am or Wednesday evenings beginning, September 16 at 6:30 pm in the Chapel. This fall we will explore the Old Testament books Jeremiah and Lamentations. We encounter many voices in the pages of these books: the prophet Jeremiah, sundry kings, Jeremiah s enemies, and a people at first defiant and later in excruciating torment. In addition, we hear the voice of God speaking through Jeremiah and Jeremiah s contemporaries. God, however, does not just speak back there and then. The living God speaks to us through the Bible, this book of faith. This study looks at how God is revealed to us as one who will not rest until we are at last a people whose hearts and minds are molded to the image and likeness of Jesus. Parent Chat While the children are making a joyful noise unto the Lord, join us in Room 101 from 6:30-7:00 pm for light-hearted chats. Thursday Morning Offering Moms Bible Study Join us Thursday mornings, beginning, September 17. The nursery opens at 9:15 am and discussion starts at 9:30 am. We meet to share in the study of God s Word and a time of fellowship with moms. Our first gathering will be around the Word and brunch, so bring a breakfast item to share. 5

6 Fellowship Ministries BOOK DISCUSSION GROUP All are welcome to join us the third Monday of each month at 10:30 am in the Parlor, as we discuss the month s book and share in fellowship together.

Diaconal Minister Christy Huffman will lead our discussion. If you have any questions about the Book Discussion Group, please contact Christy Huffman at LUTHERAN CAMPUS MINISTRY Our University of Richmond and VCU students are back. We are excited they are joining us for worship. Each year we provide opportunities for worship, as well as times of fellowship and Bible study, for our students. We provide transportation to and from worship for our UR students through a rotation of van drivers. These individuals drive the church van to the UR campus picking up students at the Transportation Hub near the Tyler Haynes Commons, bringing them to Epiphany for worship and returning them to campus following the service. With the number of volunteers, a driver would need to commit to two to three Sundays a semester. On Sunday, September 6, we will have a Welcome (Back) Lunch after the late service in the Star Lodge. If you are willing to serve as a driver or assist with our semester activities, please contact Christy Huffman or Pastor Joseph at
