Thorne Sparkman on Wednesday Nights
Every year, the Episcopal Churches of Chattanooga come together to host the Thorne Sparkman School of Religion Thorne Sparkman offers a dynamic opportunity each Lent for Christians to gather in community each Wednesday evening with others from across our city for a rich time of learning, fellowship, worship, and faith exploration, with first-class scholars and teachers. The school is held Wednesday nights at St. Paul's during Lent. This year's offerings will focus around themes such as difference, reconciliation, and spiritual growth through the lenses of scripture, contemplative thought in light of current events. This year we will also provide a children's and youth track for the first time - making this a wonderful offering for the whole family! Learn more and register here. ***Note: Scholarships are available. Contact Fr. Zack |
