Weekly & Monthly

Monday Morning Bible Study via Zoom

The Monday Bible Class has begun a study of “Parables: Stories for Life in God’s World”.   This study includes timeless stories that speak to our faith and influence the decisions we make while discovering what makes a parable unique. We will discuss how Jesus used these short and seemingly simple stories to express the heart of the good news he brought. Topics include Parables of Growth, Reversal, Preparedness, Decision, Treasure, Lost and Found, the Parable Tradition.  Class meets on Mondays 10-11:30 on Zoom and all are welcome to join us. Parables Resource books can be purchased for $25 in the church office.  Contact Sherre Henley for a Zoom link to the Monday class – sherre404@gmail.com
