Exploring Spiritual Treasure is a class for those new to the Episcopal Church, those interested in confirmation and membership, and those seeking a deeper spiritual life. This intergenerational class invites adults to enrich their spiritual connection and community.
It is the place to begin your journey at Heavenly Rest, expand your faith, and grow in relationship with Christ. Join us in Gerhart Hall for breakfast at 9:00 a.m. followed by formation from 9:15 a.m. – 10:15 a.m.
