Adult Formation & Education

Formation is the lifelong process of growing in a relationship with God, self, others, and all creation. In this process, we are transformed into the people God wants us to be.

At the Church of the Advent, we either host or are involved in a variety of formation opportunites and programs throughout the year that allow us to grow and develop as followers of Jesus Christ and as members of our church community. If you are interested in any of the opportunities below, please reach out to the contact person listed, or contact our Minister for Parish Life, Debbi Rodahaffer at debbi@adventky.org
