You are invited to a special weekend of encountering the story of our faith as if for the first time as Rev. Alan Storey guides us through scripture from Genesis to Revelation, allowing scripture to become a means of grace to us.

The Bible is meant to be an instrument of God to enable abundant life for God’s creation. Sadly, through the ages it has been read and interpreted in such a way that it has been used as an instrument of human domination and death. It has been used to cheer on the crusades, support slavery, advocate apartheid, glorify genocide, sanction sexism, bless war and worship prosperity in the face of the poor, to name just a few horrors of our human history. During our extended time together, we will hear a call to live life differently by allowing God to truly use us to transform the world.

This transformational weekend will begin with dinner on Friday, March 28 and conclude by 5:00pm on March 30. Manna & Mercy–written and illustrated by an amazing friend of Jesus, Dan Erlander–forms the basis of this innovative teaching retreat that facilitates a journey through the Bible from Genesis to Revelation in one weekend.

The retreat weekend cost $55 and includes the Manna & Mercy book, one light breakfast, one dinner, two lunches, snacks, and beverages. Contact Pastor Donna for more information and to register.
