On most Sundays from September to May, our adult learning forum meets in Johnson Hall at 9:00 am. During summer, 2026, we will be meeting at the same time, but in the Kramer Room (in the same building where worship services are held) to explore various topics under the umbrella of Coffee and Conversation. Check here each week to see if we have a pre-set topic.
July 12 – Meet and Greet with Chris Reed
Join us in the Kramer Room to meet our new intern, Chris Reed. Chris is a lawyer who also holds a Master of Divinity degree and is discerning a possible call to the priesthood.
Chris will be with us through December, and we are grateful to accompany him during this season of discernment. Come hear more of his story, introduce yourself, and help us give him a warm St. Luke’s welcome.
Previous series:
Confirmation, Reception, & Reaffirmation of Faith Series
In January we offered an Adult Forum series designed especially for those preparing for Confirmation, Reception, or Reaffirmation of Faith—and also as a great opportunity for anyone wanting to reconnect with the heart of our Episcopal tradition. These sessions were less about having all the “right answers” and more about grounding our faith in prayer, practice, and lived discipleship.
Richard Rohr’s “Falling Upward: A Spirituality for the Two Halves of Life”
Rector Greg led us in exploring Richard Rohr’s book Falling Upward: A Spirituality for the Two Halves of Life. Rohr invites us to consider how the first half of life is about building our “container”—identity, success, belonging—while the second half is about discovering the “contents”—wisdom, compassion, and the True Self God has always seen in us.
“Growing in Cultural Competency” with Rev. Franklin Morales
A foundational look at Latino cultures in the U.S. and their evolution, with a focus on ministry within the Episcopal Church. The first three sessions explore Latino Ministries at the national level, while the final two highlight communities and experiences in the Diocese of North Carolina. Traditions, faith practices, and histories that shape Latino communities, including the central role of immigration and the rich diversity of ages, and cultures, are covered. Ideal for those seeking to grow in cultural awareness and ministry readiness.
Rev. Morales is the Missioner for Hispanic Ministries of the Diocese of North Carolina.
