Ongoing Small Groups
Thursday Morning Women's Bible Study
NEW!! Thursday Morning Women’s Bible Study is starting a new study on January 5th at 9:00am | Fellowship Hall
Ruth: Loss, Love, and Legacy by Kelly Minter.
Most of us like a good rags-to-riches story, especially one that includes a bit of intrigue and a moving tale of love. We can easily get lost in a narrative where, at the beginning of the story, heartache reigned, but it was soon replaced by joy. Perhaps we’re drawn to these tales because they not only provide an escape, but hope. Many of us struggle through seasons of bitterness, tears, and loss, wondering if there could ever be a happy ending to our stories. The story of Ruth affirms that yes, there is hope. However, it's not found in a happy ending described by a novelist’s pen, but in the power and protection of a sovereign God who never takes His eyes off of us for even a moment.
In this 7-session study from Kelly Minter, we'll examine Ruth's journey of unbearable loss, redeeming love, and divine legacy. We'll see how God proves Himself faithful as the One who rescues, revives, and restores. Please come along and join us as we follow the story of Ruth in Fellowship Hall on Thursday mornings, January 5th thru February 16th from 9:00 am to 10:45am. Workbooks are $15.00.
Griefshare
Please join us on the following Wednesday February 15th from 7:00PM to 8:30PM, in the Wesley Room.
There are many types of losses that will occur for each of us, as we journey through life. Some will be minor and more easily managed, while others will be more challenging. Many times, we can find ourselves struggling with feelings of guilt, anger, regret, denial, fear, anxiety and forgiveness.
If you have experienced a loss, whether it has been foreseeable or not, sudden or over time, or one that has been UNIMAGINABLE. A loss that has stopped your world. One that has made you question everything. This will offer you the opportunity to find answers, to find peace, and to grow stronger in your faith.
Everyone is welcome. If you have a friend who is struggling with any type of loss, please invite them to come along with you.
