Women’s Bible Study
4:00 to 5:00pm
All women of the church and any interested friends, are invited to attend. These studies are an opportunity to learn about sacred texts of our faith, and to let them speak to us in ways that challenge, affirm, comfort, and support. Participants enjoy learning with and from one another. As so often happens when we engage writings of such significance, we find ourselves growing together in faith and purpose as we share in study! No prior Bible study experience is necessary to join these
