Fr. Lonnie’s Summer Book Study: The Big Relief by David Zahl
2025-08-03 11:30 - 12:30, 2025-07-27 11:30 - 12:30, 2025-07-20 11:30 - 12:30 | Killeen Hall
This summer, starting Sunday, July 6 at 11:30 AM in Killeen Hall, join Fr. Lonnie as he takes us through The Big Relief by David Zahl. This book study invites participants to explore the radical and refreshing message of God’s grace—unearned, unconditional love that brings true relief in a world weighed down by guilt, pressure, and performance. Together, we’ll unpack how grace, as presented through Scripture and real-life stories, offers freedom, rest, and joy, and discover how Christianity can be a refuge of hope rather than a burden of expectations.
Join us as we reflect on what it means to receive grace as a gift—and how it transforms the way we live, relate, and believe.
You can purchase the book on Amazon, Barnes & Noble, or order it from your local independent bookseller.

MASH (Munchkins & Spiritual Harmony)
2025-07-26 09:00 - 11:00 | Killeen Hall
It’s been no small feat to land on a date between a never-ending legislative session, summer travels, VBS (PK4–5th), and all the other church happenings, but we did it. Our next Munchkins & Spiritual Harmony gathering will be Saturday, July 26 at 9:00 a.m. in Killeen Hall.
We’ll stick with our usual rhythm: coffee, conversation, and connection as we explore faith and parenting in the beautiful chaos of early childhood. The nursery will be open.
Whether you’re fresh out of camp drop-off mode, arriving pajama-clad with coffee in hand, or simply ready for some grown-up conversation, come as you are. Bring your calendars so we can get a few playdates on the books.
Grateful for you all and excited to be back together soon.
