Offering practical guidelines for avoiding common pitfalls of public prayer. Prayer is something we learn; it is something that can be taught. For many, however, the only teaching about prayer they ever receive is modeled in Sunday worship.

This course may challenge some of your assumptions, test some of your preconceived ideas, stretch your thinking, and enrich your prayer life. It will, at the very least, present you with an opportunity to grow in the discipline of leading public prayer.

The instructor is Rev. Martin Finau, the pastor at Temple City First UMC in the East District.

Attendance is required at all sessions for credit. All those seeking certification as a Certified Lay Servant (CLS) are invited to attend. The Basic Class and one Advanced Class is required to successfully apply for CLS status within 3 years. For more information about Lay Servant Ministries, click here.

“Cheap grace is the grace we bestow on ourselves. Cheap grace is the preaching of forgiveness without requiring repentance, baptism without church discipline, Communion without confession…. Cheap grace is grace without discipleship, grace without the cross, grace without Jesus Christ, living and incarnate.”–Dietrich Bonhoeffer

Developing as a Disciple and helping to Develop Disciples takes effort and disciplines. These disciplines help form us into the image God has for us as exemplified in the person of the incarnate Christ. Discipleship is a born out of building right relationship with God, through Christ to one another. Join us in the life giving experience of identifying and applying intentional Christ centered disciplines that transform lives by helping each of us become deeper “Disciples” of Jesus Christ.

All those seeking certification as a Certified Lay Minister who need the Developing Disciples class are invited to participate, as well as all those who are currently Certified Lay Servants. This course qualifies as a Lay Servant Ministries Advanced class and as a prerequisite for Certified Lay Minister status. For more about Certified Lay Ministry, visit the CLM web page at www.calpacumc.org/clm.

A minimum number of participants is required; if the class is canceled because not enough people register, registrants will be notified by email and those who have paid will be refunded. The maximum number of participants is 24.

Attendance is required at all sessions for credit, as well as a two-hour assignment beyond the classroom, for a total of 10 hours.
Instructor is the Rev. John Farley, Assistant to the Bishop for Leadership, a former pastor in the local church, former District Superintendent, and Cabinet Dean.

Zoom information will be included in your confirmation email. You will also receive a reminder email.

Event Details

Dates: July 8-10, 2022

Location: Camp Angeles Crest (20075 Angeles Crest Hwy, Palmdale, CA 93550)

Cost: $180 Early Bird [April 15 – May 15]; $195 Regular [May 16 – June 30]; $210 Late [July 1-4]

Registration Deadline: July 4, 2022 (no exceptions)

This camp is for Youth and Young Adults (ages 14-26).

Spanglish 2022 is taking place on July 8-10, 2022, at Angeles Crest Camp in Palmdale, CA.

This year’s theme “God is our refuge y nuestra fortaleza” is based on Psalm 91:2.

What is UMC Spanglish’s Vision?

Under the leadership of a team that involves faithful servants of God that are laity, clergy, young people, and key UMC Staff. The God vision is to become a model that can be duplicated and easily modified throughout the UMC connection with the purpose of creating mature disciples of Christ that will share Jesus with the world!

What makes UMC Spanglish unique?

Spanglish is an ongoing new bilingual/bicultural youth and young adults’ ministry (ages 14-26) that has served effectively for the past four years by using an intentional mentorship model through the Spanglish Design Team. The Team provides leadership and spiritual growth opportunities for our young people to receive hands-on training, and monthly meetings as we prayerfully put together the Spanglish event, and other ongoing discipleship and evangelical events throughout the connection targeting 1st, 2nd, and 3rd generation Hispanic/Latino young people from all over our UMC connection.

We call on all members of the UM Connection to join us in prayer for our Hispanic/Latino youth and young adults and also for the 2022 Spanglish camp.
