A prayer for the InstituteA prayer for the Institute
Everliving God, font of all our knowledge and learning: enlighten our path as we grow in our love of you and your church; educate us with
insights and skills to aid those around us; and enable us to live more fully into our baptismal promises through your Son Jesus Christ our Lord who reigns with you and the Holy Spirit.
AMEN

Foundations for Christian Foundations for Christian Education Certification CourseEducation Certification Course
2009 - 20102009 - 2010• In January 2009 an in-depth
two-year certification course specifically for those responsible for Christian education will begin. The issues our parishes face today can better be addressed when the Baptismal Covenant, Episcopal identity-authority-tradition-spirituality-polity, Church history, the church year, use of the prayer book, and the reading and interpretation of scripture are foundationally ingrained into our leaders.
