Men's Spring Retreat
All men are invited to the Spring Retreat, held April 4-6 at the Jesuit Center for Spiritual Growth in Wernersville (less than one hour from the church). Come learn more about what true spiritual life really looks like, and how we can live such a life. The cost is $140 per person, and includes a single room (no roommates!), snacks and meals. The retreat is based on John Ortberg's The Life You've Always Wanted.
Sign up by Friday, March 21 in Fellowship Hall or by calling the church (610-696-0554). First Presbyterian Men's Small Group Study Programs
*In How Now Shall We Live, Prison Fellowship Ministries founder Charles Colson is calling for Christians to embrace their faith as a worldview that directs their involvement in culture. Colson says it is "the most important book I have ever written." The study guide explores the content of the book, providing related Scripture passages for reflection as well as questions that will challenge readers to put into action the principles discussed in the book. We will study this book in two 13-week sessions, session one which will be studied from October through December and session 2 from January through April.
What does it mean to join a small study group?
From Being The Body, a book by Charles Colson with Ellen Vaughn:
The church, as the body of Christ, bears present witness to how the coming Kingdom will be. It is a testimonial community in word and deed; a holy nation; a royal priesthood of believers. It is not a gathering of individuals each holding a private and separate relationship with his creator but one fellowship committing to each other in accountability and discipline united in faith, guided and empowered by the Holy Spirit. The word fellowship, used in this way, has a distinct meaning derived from the Greek word, koinonia: a community, sharing in common, bearing each other’s burdens to build each other up to the Lord.
