Monday Evening Book Study - 7:00 p.m. on Zoom - Starts September 13
Seasonal studies led by clergy and church leaders are available from September - May.
To participate, contact the Rev, Patti Sachs at patti@stmargarets.org.
The study this fall will focus on the book “The Forgotten Creed - Christianity’s Original Struggle Against Bigotry, Slavery, & Sexism” by Stephen J. Patterson. In the days when Jesus was still fresh in the memory of those who knew him, the argument was a different one: how can human beings overcome the ways by which we divide ourselves one from another? Is solidarity possible beyond race, class, and gender? Join the discussions!

Education for Ministry
Want to know more about Christianity? About how the Church became what it is today? About the Bible? About your personal ministry?
The EfM program invites people into small, mentored communities that help us to understand our lives and share our actions as we deepen our Christian faith.” EFM is a four-year study program through the School of Theology at the University of the South, Sewanee, Tennessee. We look at the bible historically, literally, metaphorically, theologically, and "scientifically" (using science now known, we can apply dates, ascribe authorship, have political background, etc.).
Our group gathers for 36 weeks, September through May, on Wednesday mornings, 9-11:30 a.m. If you are interested in joining the class at St. Margaret’s, please contact Jim Hall (jhhall1942@verizon.net) or 410-956-5120). The cost is $375 and includes all texts. Scholarship help is available. Students who have completed a year or more previously are encouraged to join and complete the program; or if you have graduated and want to explore EfM through the new texts, you are very welcome.
