Youth Sunday School- Sundays, 9:45-10:45 a.m. (September-May)
The Sunday School program is open to those in 5th grade and younger, as we gather each week under the banner of "We are God's Masterpiece." Members and non-members, friends of the church or just guest for a Sunday...all are welcome to join us as we grow in faith and learn about Jesus. We meet upstairs in Room 207.

Women's Bible Study- Fourth Tuesday of the month, 7:00 p.m.
All women are invited to the monthly Women’s Bible Study on November 26th in room 207. Our study will be based on the topic, "Stewarding the Gift of Joy." In this final session of the fall study on the stewardship of emotions, we will explore the meaning of joy; what it is, where it comes from, and what the poetry of the Bible has to teach us about this gift. Our texts for the study include Psalm 30, Psalm 150, and the Song of Solomon.

Thursday Bible Study- Thursdays, 10 a.m.

There will be no Bible Study on November 28 or December 5. We begin our study on the book of First Thessalonians on Thursday, December 12. Come be a part of the discussion!

Book Club- 3rd Thursday of the month, 7:00 p.m.

For November, the House of Prayer book club will be looking at the Gospel of John. Written by the "disciple whom Jesus loved," the central theme is the divine Logos, the word that was with God and that was God. This Logos became flesh and dwelt among men in the person of Jesus of Nazareth. John, the fourth of the four New Testament narratives recounting the life and death of Jesus Christ, is the only only one of the four gospels not considered among the Synoptic Gospels (those presenting a common view). Generally speaking, the synoptics tell us what Jesus said and did; John tells us who Jesus is.
