Fall Bible Studies Starting September 9
- Women’s Bible Study: We’re excited to announce that the women’s Bible study will be starting on Wednesday, Sept. 9, from 7—8:30 PM. Our 10-week study is titled, “Believing God” by Beth Moore. Please contact Julia Fisher if you have any questions. There is a sign-up sheet in the lobby.
- Men’s Bible Study: All men 16 years and older are invited to participate in our “Quest for Authentic Manhood.” This study will challenge our culturally held views of men and assist men toward greater faithfulness. Men will meet for six sessions, the second and fourth Wednesdays of each month. Please see Steve Horst, Randall Shull, Jonathan Bowman, Chris Wenden, or Fred Miller if you have questions.
- Childcare will be provided. An offering will be taken to assist with cost.
Connections Substitutes: Connections is in need of substitutes for this coming year. Substitutes would be placed on a list for our regular childcare workers to call if they can’t come that Wednesday. You would be paid for subbing and the hours would be Wednesday mornings from 9:15-11:15. Please consider this small way you could greatly help out our Connections program. If you are interested or have questions, please contact Renee Suydam or Dawn Sauder. Thanks!
