Formation Archive

Due to the Covid-19 pandemic, our Adult Formation series was held online for much of 2020 and 2021, and many of these sessions were recorded. In the interest of following our Baptismal Covenant to "proclaim by word and example the Good News of God in Christ" (The Book of Common Prayer 1979, pg. 305), our archive is made available here to serve as a resource to learn about the Christian faith, Anglo-Catholicism, and the Episcopal Church.
