CENTERING PRAYER (Chapel)
Contact Phil Haag for more information: phaag@mcginnislaw.com
Centering Prayer time begins at 9:00 a.m. Centering prayer helps us develop our relationship with God and helps lead us into contemplative prayer. This 30-minute time of silent communion is open to all. The class begins at 9:30, and uses select Christian classics as a resource. We hope to grow in relationship with the Lord and the world and develop a more contemplative way of life.

Currently, we are studying Paul’s letter to the Romans using commentaries by Karl Barth, John Stott and NT Wright.
DETOX (Chapel)
Contact Mark Charbonneau for more information: markc@whpc.org
Summer at the Movies…Jesus was constantly looking at the world around Him; seeing signs of the Gospel and glimpses into His Kingdom. In the same spirit, the Detox class will be continuing our theme by pairing messages from popular movies with Biblical text as we seek to detox our spiritual lives from that which holds us back from experiencing the life and love of Jesus Christ. Join us as we explore spiritual health and a way to connect to one another inside and outside the church.

Fun, energetic, life-giving, Christ-centered, a place to become more and more the persons God intends us to be….we all want these qualities to describe our marriages and these same qualities describe this class. Join us for excellent teaching and warm fellowship in a welcoming environment. Sam Cangelosi and Peter Haas will be teaching the class for the summer.
