New Society Forming

Dear Christian Brothers and Sisters,

There is a vision being birthed at the Anglican Church of the Resurrection ("ACR") in San Marcos, California. Read on. A new Community (Society) is arising in your midst. This is to invite Christians to consider becoming a part of it . . . as the Lord leads. The Society (Community) forming will be a group of persons who especially intend to walk in the joy of serving our Servant King, the Lord Jesus Christ. Our coming together will be for the express purpose of mutual encouragement and accountability with a special focus on growth in Christ through serving.

The life of the Society will include a formal commitment to prayer (including some form of the Divine Offices) as well as spiritual reading. As mentioned, our mandate will include availability to serve others as God leads. We anticipate that there would be a meeting of the Society once or twice a month.

On January 3, 2010 Bishop John-David Schofield who, with the Rev. Dr. Eric Menees, Senior Pastor at ACR, has given his blessing to the formation of this Society, will formally inaugurate the Society and hear the promises of those who wish to belong to it. The previous day, January 2, 2010, Bishop Schofield will lead a Quiet Day at ACR (open to all) on the subject of "Intercessory Prayer." Those intending to become part of the Society will see this Quiet Day as an opportunity for preparation for their commitment. All of this will take place at ACR. Stay tuned for more details.

So . . . this is a call to Christians who might feel the tug of the Lord Jesus Christ to join in this opportunity. If you are interested, please join us to learn more and to discuss/pray for the discernment of God's will in this matter. God willing, we will meet together for this purpose on Monday evening, November 16, 2009 at 7:00 P.M. in our home at 952 Knoll Vista Dr., Lake San Marcos, CA 92078. Please RSVP, if you can, however just showing up would be fine.

Sincerely in Christ,

Fr. Dennis & Elizabeth Kelly
