Lent Study (Session 3 of 4): The Seven Deadly Sins
2025-04-02 18:00 - 19:30 (America/New_York) | Christ Episcopal Church, 15 West High Street, Ballston Spa, NY, 12020, United States
What are the seven deadly sins? Are the deadly sins, or capital vices, merely outdated concepts unfit for our modern world? Or are they still relevant for today’s spirituality? In addition to exploring the deadly sins’ historical development and spiritual purpose, this study will also examine the life-giving virtues that point us to Jesus Christ, the virtuous medicine that heals any sinful ailment. Classes will be held on the following Wednesday evenings: 12th March; 19th March; 2nd April; and 9th April. On 12 March, we will meet at Christ Church, Ballston Spa.
To register, please contact the parish office.
