Pastor Camilla's Study Group
Groups will meet Tuesdays at 6 pm and Wednesdays at 10 am
Pastor Camilla will begin a new study the week of January 5. “The Wesley Prayer Challenge–21 Days to a Closer Walk with Christ” is a 4 week reflection on the Wesley covenant prayer, used regularly in our year-end covenant renewal service. The study is based on the book of the same name by Chris Folmsbee. You will need a book to get the most out of this study.
Pastor Camilla has a limited number of books available on a first come, first served basis. Email her at pastorcamilla@decaturfirstujmc.org if you want one. It is also available at cokesbury.com and amazon.com (in both paperback and Kindle format).
The Wesley Covenant Prayer has been used in Methodist services around the world on the first Sunday of the year since John Wesley introduced it in 1755. Wesley expected that people would pray this prayer as a way of remembering, renewing, and surrendering themselves in complete trust to God. When we pray it, we are to remember what living like Jesus looks like and what loving God with all our heart, soul and mind and loving our neighbors as ourselves require of us.
