New Classes beginning in October:

"Living in the Kingdom of God" based on Dallas Willard's book, The Divine Conspiracy. Jack Voss, partnering with Doug Henry, will raise questions and facilitate discussion. The class will meet in the East Lounge, east of the sanctuary.

"Children, Schooling, and Spiritual Formation" - facilitated by Paula Limburg. An interactive learning group for parents or anyone interested in expanding and deepening their knowledge of children's spiritual formation. Some topics:  Whose children are they? What is spiritual formation? How do parents think, discuss, decide about spiritual formation of their own children. How can River Terrace Church be a vital partner in this formation? What is our corporate responsibility to our children as Christian community? How can we support and encourage each other. The format will include short presentations, discussion and options for individuals who wish to "go further." The class will meet in the Quad on the lower level.
