It’s time once again to begin thinking about getting back into the Word of God for a weekly Bible study. Hopefully everyone had a good, relaxing, restful, and fun summer with your families. There are many opportunities for adults to fellowship and find support among a group while studying the Bible together this fall. |

Prayer Meeting

The Lord gives us a great opportunity when He invites us to, “Call unto me and I will answer you!” (Jer. 33:3). We certainly have many areas in our lives, church, community, nation, and world in which we need God’s help. In what areas would you like the Lord to answer you about? Let’s not waste this great privilege! Join us in prayer at any or all of our prayer meetings:
- •Tuesdays at 12:00 p.m. Prayer Group in the library
- Wednesdays at 5:45 p.m. Prayer Meeting in Room A-1
- Thursdays at 1:30 p.m. Centering Prayer in Room A-2

Grandmothers in Prayer
|
Each month a group of grandmothers from our church meet together to pray for our grandchildren. We use a study book to focus on specific areas of grandparenting as well as to encourage us in our own spiritual growth. Some of our grandchildren live nearby, and some live far away; some are very young and others are adults. It doesn’t matter how far away they live, or what their ages are, we uphold them in our prayers. Our group meets on the fourth Thursday of each month in the church parlor (A4) at 9:30 a.m. We welcome all grandmothers who would like to meet for a time of sharing and group prayer. For further information contact Anita Hare (790-0603). |
