Fellowship and Membership Activities
Weekly Bible Study:
Please join us for our weekly Bible study group! It meets on Thursdays at noon until 1:00 PM here at the church. As the group has just finished studying the Old Testament, Pastor Scot is going to take a scenic route through the Apocrypha? Are these books helpful for study and inspiration? Why do some Bibles include these books while others don’t? Join us for a Bible study exploring these questions alongside these fascinating books that stand between the Old and New Testaments! This study will take us through several books of the Apocrypha while also exploring their historical context. All are welcome!
