'The

Changing Church' is topic of discussion at FUMC seminar

Aug. 26

Author and professor Dr. Robert

Webber will explore the themes of new trends in churches

in a one-day workshop entitled "Authentic Worship in

a Changing World" on Saturday, Aug. 26, from 8 a.m.

until 3:30 p.m. at the Fayetteville First United

Methodist Church. The fee is $59 for pre-registrants and

$79 for walk-ins. Both Laity and church leaders are

encouraged to attend.

In the

workshop, Dr. Webber not only explores principles of

authentic God-oriented worship, but also helps churches

to build bridges into the changing world.

"In

his work as college and seminary professor, Dr. Webber

has surveyed many of his classes for worship trends of

Generation X," a spokesperson said. " His

findings show that Gen X-ers are longing to experience

the power and mystery of God-but maybe not in the

same way their baby boomer parents have experienced

God."

Registration

starts at 8 a.m. The workshop runs from 8:45 a.m. until

3:30 p.m., with snacks and lunch provided. Call the

Institute for Worship Studies at 630-510-8905 to

preregister.
