Since we are surrounded by so great a cloud of witnesses, let us also lay aside every weight and the sin that easily distracts, and let us run with perseverance the race that is set before us….
Hebrews 12:1 (NRSV, with footnote)
In Walking among saints, we will explore the lives and thinking of several holy people. Then we will consider what we can learn from each.
This exploration takes place at the Episcopal Church of the Redeemer starting on Sunday, October 27, 2024, starting at 9:30 am and running each Sunday until November 24. The class is free and open to everyone in the community. You do not need to be a member of Church of the Redeemer.
- October 27. Join us as we separate myth from what is known of St. Mary Magdelene, “disciple to the disciples.” Presented by the Rev. Theresa Newell.
- November 3. Experience and understand what it means to be truly humble from the perspective of St. Therese of Lisieux. Presented by the Rev. Theresa Newell.
- November 10. Find out about St. Kevin, known as the founder and first abbot of Glendalough in County Wicklow, Ireland. Presented by the Rev. Jed Fox.
- November 17. Consider what is important or permissible in worship as we consider the ideas and history of Nicholas Ridley, one of the Oxford Martyrs. Presented by Earl Beede.
- November 24. Delve into the thought and experiences of St. Francis and St. Clare, cofounders of a religious movement whose values run counter to the culture of their times (and ours). Presented by Barry McAllister and Marsha Goss.
This adult class meets on the main floor in the worship area. A different class for children meets in a room off of the downstairs parish hall.
Church of the Redeemer is at 6220 NE 181st Street in Kenmore, Washington. For more information, contact the Rev. Theresa Newell at tnewell@redeemer-kenmore.org.
Church of the Redeemer
Church of the Redeemer: Worshiping God, living in community, and reaching out to the world around us. We are an Episcopal Church serving north King County and south Snohomish County, Washington. As you travel your road, go with friends walking the way of Jesus at Redeemer.
Church of the Redeemer is at 6220 Northeast 181st Street in Kenmore, Washington. The campus is a short distance north of Bothell Way, near the Burke-Gilman Trail. The entrance looks like a gravel driveway. The campus is larger on the inside than it is on the outside. And we managed to hide a large building on the side of a hill that is not easily seen from the street.
The Episcopal Church welcomes you.
