COS,
If you participate in worship as a liturgist, scripture reader, or intercessory prayer leader, or if you are interested in leading in this way in the future, please join us for a time of training and equipping on September 13 and 14 from 7:00 PM-9:10 PM in room 4 (BES worship space). Leaders of all ages are welcome and encouraged to attend.
Day 1 is a general session for all leaders, and Day 2 will be for intercessory prayer leaders only. If you are an intercessory prayer leader and cannot attend both days, please attend as you are able. If you are not able to attend this time, a duplicate training will be available in the winter.
To help us plan for this training session, please use THIS LINK to RSVP or use the paper signup sheets on the café counter.
