SUMMARY:Grief Focus Group
DESCRIPTION:If you have experienced the loss of someone or something you love\, you know firsthand how difficult it can be to cope with grief and carry on in a spirit of peace and joy. Pastor Pamela would like to invite anyone wrestling with loss to a focus group to discuss how the church can help you. Whether your grief is new or longstanding\, we are interested in your thoughts and input as we consider the formation of a grief support group and investigate written materials to potentially purchase. This one-time focus group will meet immediately after our worship service on October 22\, from 10:45 to 11:45am in the Fellowship Hall. We hope to hear which of our ideas are appealing\, what resources have been helpful to you\, and how we might be a better blessing to people in our church.

SUMMARY:Journey Through the Gospels: John Bible Study (Morning Session)
DESCRIPTION:Our Journey Through the Gospels study series concludes this fall with a six-week study of the book of John. Come find out why this book is often called the “Gospel of Life” and discover how John differs from Matthew\, Mark\, and Luke in focus and purpose. Whether you’re a beginner Bible reader or a seasoned student of the Scriptures\, we promise you’ll be blessed by this time of fellowship and joyful learning. Can’t be present for the entire study? No worries; you’re welcome to come for any or all of our sessions. Our Wednesday morning (11:00am) study begins September 20 and ends October 25\, and an identical Wednesday evening (6:30pm) study begins September 27 and ends November 1. Refreshments are provided at both studies.
