By Josh Brockway
The Church of the Brethren’s Discipleship Ministries and the Part-time Pastor, Full-time Church program are offering two Lent Conversation Groups.
Joshua Brockway, director of spiritual formation, will host a gathering based on A Women’s Lectionary for the Whole Church, Year W, by Wilda C. Gafney. This gathering will focus on listening to the scriptures and one another. It will be held on Wednesday evenings at 7 p.m. (Eastern time) / 4 p.m. (Pacific time).
Another group will be hosted by John Fillmore, a circuit rider for Part-time Pastor, Full-time Church, and will meet on Fridays at 7 p.m. (Eastern time) / 4 p.m. (Pacific time). This group will explore the themes in the Brethren Press Lent devotion We Wait for Light by Walt Wiltschek.
The first meetings will take place March 9 and March 11, respectively, with continuing weekly sessions through the season of Lent.
