The congregations of Faith Lutheran Church, Wilmington Friends Meeting, and First Christian Church will gather together in the courtyard of First Christian Church for the Blessing of the Animals.
Bring your beloved creatures of God for a short service and a blessing.
Whether you are feeling called to follow Christ for the first time through baptism, are considering transferring your membership, or simply want to deepen your understanding of our shared faith, we would be honored to walk alongside you in this journey.
Beginning October 5th, Pastor Connor will be leading a six-week Sunday evening class using Prepare the Way, a long-standing and trusted curriculum from Chalice Media. This study offers an opportunity to grow in understanding of the Christian faith, the meaning of baptism, and the unique witness of the Christian Church (Disciples of Christ).
This will be a combined class—some will be preparing for baptism, others for transfer of membership, and still others may already be members who wish to learn more about our tradition. There is no obligation or expectation to make a commitment at the end of the class—our goal is simply to offer a welcoming space for learning, questions, and conversation.
