The Learning Ministry Team supports MSPC’s mission to be centered in Christ, caring for community. In accord with the Reformed theological tradition, with accountability to the Session, the Learning Ministry Team provides classes, retreats, mentoring, and a church library to the MSPC congregation and its neighbors. Guided by the Holy Spirit, the Learning Ministry Team fosters scripturally informed reliance on God among followers of Jesus, so that they may live and serve others with wisdom and joy.
Adult Faith Formation is a means to discover our gifts for ministry. This is fostered through study, prayer, meditation, retreats, and hands-on projects. Programs offered are intended to provide fellowship for participants, guidance toward a closer relationship with God, strengthen our Reformed Presbyterian identity, and support MSPC’s working in the world for peace, justice, freedom, and human fulfillment.
