Teaching and FellowshipNurturing one another in our lives as Christians has many components - including Teaching and Fellowship. Worshipping and Serving are also important aspects of our faith journey together. Teaching includes Christian education for children, youth, and adults. Beginning on October 3, 2010, Adult Christian Formation will take place from 9:00 - 10:00 a.m. Childcare will be available during Adult Christian Formation and throughout the morning, from 9:00 a.m. - 12 noon. Beginning on the first Sunday of Advent, November 28, 2010, Children's Christian Formation at St. John's will resume with the Godly Play montessori-style curriculum for children 3 and up. Children will begin Godly Play at 10:15 a.m. The children will join the Sunday Morning Worship Service in time for Communion, at approximately 11:15 a.m. As mentioned above, Childcare for infants and toddlers will be available from 9:00 a.m. - 12 noon. See Adult Education for the current Adult Christian Formation schedule. There are also lots of opportunities for broader adult education through the Diocese of Missouri's Episcopal School for Ministry. Jesus also said, "With what can we compare the kingdom of God, or what parable will we use for it? It is like a mustard seed, which, when sown upon the ground, is the smallest of all the seeds on earth; yet when it is sown it grows up and becomes the greatest of all shrubs, and puts forth large branches, so that the birds of the air can make nests in its shade." (Gospel of Mark, 4: 30-32)
