THE SCHEDULE FOR DISCERNMENT DAY

11:15 a.m. - 12:15 p.m.  What Is Call?
We will name marks of a call to help us recognize a call from God, mostly by reflecting on examples of people in the Scriptures and drawing on the experience of members of the Church of the Saviour in Washington, D.C.

1:00 - 1:30 p.m.  Barriers to Responding to Call
We will name various blocks that keep us from being true to our call, and identify which ones trap us.

1:30 - 2:20 p.m.  How We Discern Call
We will explore and practice ways to pay attention to God guiding us and speaking to us.  This includes a time for journaling on specific questions for reflection and sharing in small groups.

2:20 - 3:00 p.m.  Embodying Call in Community
We will learn how Church of the Saviour engages its members in their calls through the structure of mission groups, and the importance of community to support and implement call.  We will close with a brief time for singing and praying together.
