February 2020 Celebrate Christian Education and Formation Sunday

“Being formed as followers of Jesus is a lifelong learning process that empowers each one of us to engage in the holy work that God has given us.  Whether it is a Godly Play class, a week-long Vacation Bible School, a Sunday Forum, a Bible study or preparation for a call to ordered ministry we celebrate together the wonderful opportunities
we have to learn and grow.”
–The Rev. Canon David Lovelace

Ways to celebrate with us…

Attend our Learning Weekend on February 21st and 22nd in Danville at the St. Cyril Center, where we will celebrate with outstanding faculty and students. Dr. Deirdre Good and The Rev. Gina Campbell will guide us through our focus theme:  The Church and Change in a Time of Anxiety. To register visit, https://diocesecpa.org/ssfm/  

Invite a student, Dean Robyn Szoke-Coolidge rszoke@diocesecpa.org or SSFM Advisory board chair, The Rev. David Lovelace, revdwl@aol.com  to preach or teach! Celebrate Theological Education Sunday. If you cannot make this happen in February, consider celebrating another month in 2020.
