Ladies Friendly Circle

The Ladies Friendly Circle is a women's group that meets on first and third Thursday evenings (September - May) for a time of fellowship, craft works, and occassional outings. The group was initially started in 1886 to help fund the construction of the new church, which was completed in 1888. The group continues to raise funds for the church's various projects. All women are invited to come to a meeting, as there is no church membership requirement. The ladies put on a big Holiday Bazaar the first Saturday of each November.

 

First Saturday Men's Fellowship

All adult males are invited to meet at 8:00 A.M. on the first Saturday of each month for light breakfast, fellowship, prayer, Bible study and discussion. The occassional junket or expedition is to be expected. Meet in the Parish House.

 

Morning and Evening Bible Study

Wednesday mornings at 9AM and Wednesday evenings at 7:00 P.M. (September -May). This is a chance to dig into the Scriptures and share insights. The evening session includes a brief prayer service. Bring your NIV Bible to the Lawrence House:

5 Weeks: September 16 to October 14

Travel to Israel and radically change your understanding of the Scriptures. Wet your feet in the Jordan River and impact the culture with life-giving water. Show your trust in the Lord's provision by offering up first fruits at Jericho. And cleanse the land by confronting evil and using the tools of society to redeem your world for God. In this first volume of the "That the World May Know" series, historian and teacher Ray Vander Laan will show you how God guided his people to a specific place - the Promised Land - to impact the world both in ancient times and today.

6 Weeks -  April 14 to May 26 (no Bible Study April 7 or May 5)

Best-selling author Max Lucado leads readers through a word-by-word study of John 3:16, the passage that he calls the "Hope Diamond" of Scripture. A twenty-six-word parade of hope: beginning with God, ending with life and urging us to do the same. Brief enough to write on a napkin or memorize in a moment, yet solid enough to weather two thousand years of storms and questions. The heart of the human problem is the heart of the human. And God's treatment is prescribed in John 3:16. He loves. He gave. We believe. We live.
