Adult Church School Led by Lauren Bass & Team - “Reading Between the Lines: Exploring Our Story through Biblical Stories”
Adult Church School is Happening! Are you tired of letting the kids have all the fun? Beginning on Sep 15, you’re invited to join us for "Reading Between the Lines" Adult Church School at 10:10 in the Adult Learning Room, led by Lauren Bass. Each week, our incredible team of teachers will invite you to use your imagination, intellect, intuition and reason to engage the Bible stories, connect them with the world around us, and explore the resonances those stories stir in our inmost depths. We will do more than analyze and understand the text – together we will experience scripture as a reality within ourselves, connecting us to the text and the world around us. Please feel welcome to drop in any Sunday for “Reading Between The Lines: Exploring our story through Biblical Stories." Questions or details? Contact lbass@stpaulsokc.org

WALKING THE MOURNER'S PATH This 8-week course is for those who have experienced the death of a loved one and are experiencing grief. Walking the Mourner's Path will offer a 2025 course with dates shared soon.
When someone in our life dies, it affects our entire being. This is an 8-week grief support program that is grounded in prayer and reminds us that we are not alone in our grief. If you have lost a loved one and have walked the path of grief, “Walking the Mourner’s Path” may be what you need. Open to St. Paul's members and the community alike, the program gathers participants for a series of small-group workshops. It’s different than a Sunday morning faith formation program, but the format allows time for being still together, sharing stories, and seeing where God is in our grief and in our hope.
Contact Jani Hill for registration or more information about the program.
