Join us at First Congregational Church of Escondido for refreshments and for a presentation from author and pastor, Wes Ellis, celebrating his exciting new book *Abiding in Amen: Prayer in a Secular Age.*Wes is the pastor of First Congregational Church of Ramona (UCC) and he's served in Methodist, Presbyterian, and Lutheran settings. He is a practical theologian and a Visiting Instructor at Luther Seminary in St. Paul Minnesota. He holds a Ph.D. from University of Aberdeen (UK).
Rather than being a source of joy and freedom, prayer has become a source of anxiety and guilt for so many of us. Borne from Wes' experience as a pastor, this book explores what has made prayer so difficult for so many of us and teaches us how to pray in our secular age. Wes envisions prayer not as a task or as a discipline to be mastered, but as a gift from the God of grace.
Come and enjoy fellowship, refreshments, and a presentation from Pastor Wes where you will have the opportunity to ask questions. We might even pray together!
