2020/2021 ~ OMC Adult Faith Formation

​
​Lenten Small Communities of Faith
Don’t do Lent Alone! Join a Virtual Small Group!
“Let us consider how to stir up one another to love and good works.” Hebrews 10:24

 
Perhaps you’ve tried to pray more or study Scripture for Lent in the past, only to fall short of your goal. But what if you had a supportive community this time?  Join a virtual small group via Zoom and be encouraged this Lent. Small groups are facilitated by fellow parishioners, and gather by Zoom this year to discuss life and faith, reflect on God’s Word together – applying the Sunday readings to daily life, and praying for and with one another.  There are no teachers in small groups (except the Holy Spirit!), just friends seeking God together.  Lenten groups meet for 8 weeks, beginning the week of February 7.  Interested?  Check out the Reach More page on our website!  To register contact Sister Christine by January 30 at 215-247-0430 or [email protected].  All are welcome!  Encourage a friend to join too!
