Easter Formation Opportunities
Book Study with Lomax AME Zion
During the season of Easter, St. Michael’s will participate in a book study with our brothers and sisters from Lomax. We will meet on Monday evenings from 7:00 – 8:30 PM, beginning on April 12 and ending on May 17.
Participants are asked to pre-register, simply so that we can have small group discussion leaders. Discussion groups with members from both congregations will engage the highlighted chapters in this order: Five, Six, Two, Three, Nine, and Ten.
The book is available upon request from St. Michael's, or may be purchased here.
