Spiritual Formation

Study the Book of Genesis with the Friendship Class this fall. All are invited to one or all the video lectures by Professor Gary Rendsburg, Chair of Jewish History at Rutgers University. This Fall series will begin with a presentation and discussion on how to read Genesis. If Genesis intrigues you, learn more about it with the Friendship Class!

What do a Hebrew prophet and a folk singer have in common? More than you’d think! Whether your soundtrack is Woody Guthrie, Bob Marley, Tracy Chapman, Lady Gaga, Bad Bunny, or Common and John Legend, this series is for you. Together we’ll examine protest music across genres and generations in light of scripture and Brethren tradition, tracing a thread from the prophets to the present. What does a faithful protest sound like now? All welcome; no musical background required. 

Join us  to make Christmas crafts to sell at the Alternative Christmas Gift Faire – no experience or artistic ability needed!

All are welcome!

We are a Matthew 25 Movement congregation, seeking to protect and defend the vulnerable in the name of Jesus. One way we work at this pledge is by providing meals to Hope 4 Home, a local transitional housing center in Pomona. Join us in the kitchen after worship to help prepare meals. All ages welcome!

Questions? Email our kitchen ministries coordinator, Tron Passmore, at kitchen@lavernecob.org
