10am - 2pm. No registration fee; RSVP required; lunch provided.
The Faith Formation Team invites you to prepare for Lent at a writing workshop with Carol Davis Younger, editor of Reflections, the daily devotional guide of NextSunday Resources (Smyth & Helwys). We’ll dive into writing exercises, read Scripture with a notebook in hand, and discuss how forming words forms us spiritually. Experienced writers, and those who are simply curious about writing as a spiritual practice, are welcome.

Carol Davis Younger loves gathering and working with church writing groups because of the amazing opportunities they provide congregations for learning, community, and growth. Reflecting on our lives with pen and paper is a helpful way to pray. And sharing what we're writing with those who are doing the same often creates an unusual kind of prayer meeting. Plan to join us on February 22! Room will be announced when group size is known. No size limit; no registration fee; all are welcome!

Following the Saturday workshop, FBC will offer TWO 5-week writing groups: one on Wednesday evenings starting Mar. 4 (led by Pastor Julie) and one on Saturday mornings starting Mar. 7 (led by Pastor Alyssa). Stay tuned for more information as Lent approaches!
