Adult Inquirer's Class: Fall 2023

The Adult Inquirer’s Class is a four-part introduction to the life of faith at All Saints’, led by our rector, Simon Mainwaring. Meetings are held on Wednesday nights from 6:30 to 8:00 p.m. The first three meetings take place on Zoom, and the final session is an in-person dinner at the church.

1. LEADERSHIP AND THE BAPTIZED LIFE | September 13

In the Episcopal Church all baptized people are invited to be ministers. This opening session explores how members at All Saints’ are encouraged to exercise their gifts for ministry in the church and in the city. (Held on Zoom)

2. CHRISTIAN IDENTITY AND JUSTICE | September 20

All Saints’ has long strived to be a community of inclusion and justice. This session will look at our core ministries and our life as a faith community in Atlanta as we seek and serve Christ in all persons. (Held on Zoom)

3. SPIRITUALITY AND EXPRESSING OUR FAITH | September 27

As a community of prayer we express our faith in worship and through Life-long learning and formation in the Spirit. This session considers the many opportunities for the sacred journey that exist at All Saints’ and how we are called to encourage one another in leading lives marked by faith in our daily lives. (Held on Zoom)

4. CHURCH AS COMMUNITY | October 4

In a large church like All Saints’, it can be important to find a community within the village of people who make up our parish. We believe in the centrality of relationship and connection. This session imagines the church as a community, how we are called to offer the fullness of our lives to the life of the church, and ask how each of us might make our lives count for the sake of God’s kingdom on earth. (In-person over dinner at the church)
