ADULT FORMATION
As you therefore have received Christ Jesus the Lord, continue to live your lives in him, rooted and built up in him and established in the faith, just as you were taught, abounding in thanksgiving.
- Colossians 2:6-7
SUNDAY MORNING SPIRITUAL EDUCATION FOR ADULTS
A Sunday Morning Series at St. Alban’s
9:10 a.m. in the Parish Hall beginning October 11, 2026
We know that God’s presence in our lives is not limited to Sunday mornings, so how does God show up in our spheres of work?
In our culture, so much of one’s identity is tied to the work we do. For some, work is a vocation, a calling we have answered. For others, work is a job—we do it primarily to support our families, but it can still have profound meaning for us. And for some, the working life is a memory that still shapes us even after we have retired.
Come and listen as members of our community share their insights and stories of how they have seen and experienced God at work in their professional lives.

DAUGHTERS OF THE KING
The Order of the Daughters of the King is an international community of Episcopal, Anglican, Lutheran (ELCA), and Roman Catholic women who take vows to pray and serve our Lord Jesus Christ every day. Becoming a member professes the intentionality to pray and serve. We model the importance of prayer and service in our parishes and in the larger church.
BIBLE STUDY
On Wednesdays at 10:00 a.m. the clergy lead a weekly in-person Bible Study in the Reflection Room. Together we read and reflect on the lectionary scripture lessons for the upcoming Sunday. This is a wonderful way to deepen your faith and understanding of the Bible. No RSVPs or advanced reading is needed--just drop in when you can.
