Spiritual Development at Warren
Prayer Circle--Meets on the second and fourth Saturdays from 10 to 11:30 a.m. in the Adult Classroom on the lower level of the church. If you would like to grow in your faith through study and prayer, including prayer for members and friends of the Warren faith community and the world, you might find this group a rewarding experience.
Besides praying for people and situations, the group uses study books to focus and guide our thoughts, prayers, and growth. The current study began the the first Saturday of March, using the book Exploring the Way, another in the Companions in Christ series of studies.
Music at Warren
Here is your opportunity if you love to sing! During the school year (Sept.-May) there is a choir for the morning service (9:00 a.m.). This choir sings a variety of choral music. Choir begins a new year on Sept. 13. The Sanctuary Choir continues Warren's tradition of worship through music beginning the Sunday after Labor Day. Anyone who would like to use their voice in praise and worship is invited to join the choir for practice each Sunday after the 9:00 service in the Sanctuary. The choir typically performs twice a month and gives a choral program at Palm Sunday (Spring) and during Advent (December).
Warren's Reading Room Ministry!
Malcolm Himschoot has been working downstairs to turn part of the space into a new reading room ministry.
By then he is seeking donations of worthwhile books, DVDs and periodicals to "support and engage each one's faith
journey" and "to proclaim theologically and socially progressive Christian values."
Please contact Malcolm if you subscribe to any of the following and would be willing to share magazines like:
- - Orion
- - Sojourners
- - Ploughshares
- - Weavings
- - Christian Century
- - Alive Now
- - The Sun
Also think about whether you have quality books to share related to ministries at Warren:
- - Narcotics Anonymous
- - housing and transition from homelessness
- - refugees
- - youth
- - recent seminary textbooks
- - lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender-affirming Christian spirituality
Lastly, let Malcolm know if you have places you'd recommend on a 'virtual library' bookshelf - for instance the link to your own blog!
"With Wi-Fi, a comfy chair, and a few organized shelves, the reading room is ready."
