Education for Ministry

Please Join Us for an Open House on Tuesday, February 28 at 6:45 p.m. Saint Paul’s Episcopal Church, Fireside Room, 661 Old Post Road, Fairfield, CT.  RSVP to: Jeffri Harre, Group Mentor, jeffrih@aol.com.

Every baptized person is called to ministry. The Education for Ministry (EfM) program provides people from all walks of life with the education “to be” Christians and to carry out their individual ministry, whatever that may be. Today, many adults seek a Christian education which supports their faith and which prepares them to express that faith in day-to-day events.
The current EfM group at St. Paul’s invites you to learn more about this worldwide educational program by sitting in on an actual class and, if you wish, participating in our discussion. There is no obligation and no cost to attend this Open House session; in the spirit of Episcopal Hospitality, light refreshments and non-alcoholic beverages will be served. Anyone age 18 and over is invited to participate; it is not required that you be Episcopalian or Christian.

The seminar group is the nucleus of the EfM program. At Saint Paul’s our EfM group consists of six to twelve participants and a trained mentor who meet weekly over the course of a nine-month academic year (September through May). We meet once a week, on Tuesdays, from 6:45 p.m. to 9:30 p.m. Adult students enroll in the EfM program one year at a time, can transfer to another EfM group almost anywhere in the USA and in many foreign countries, and are eligible for 18 Continuing Education Units per year by participating.

We are hopeful that this Open House format allows adults curious about the program to experience the richness of our spiritual explorations and discussions. We are actively seeking new members to join us for the September 2012 to May 2013 academic year at St. Paul’s in Fairfield. An additional Open House will take place on Tuesday, May 8, 2012.
