New Bible Study for 2021Our new Bible Study class is slated to begin in February. Follow Me: Meeting Jesus in the Gospel of John is your guide to a personal encounter with Christ. If you want to know what it means to really follow Christ, and if you would like to have a deeper relationship with Him, then we invite you to join us for Follow Me. Participants in the class will receive a workbook and will meet monthly to view an engaging video presentation followed by group discussion and fellowship. The eight 30-minute videos, presented by Dr. Edward Sri, will guide you through the Gospel of John. Dr. Sri will explain how Christ’s encounters with His disciples, the Samaritan woman, the man born blind, and others, are examples of how He lovingly and persistently calls each of us to a more intimate and life-changing relationship with Him. Because of the pandemic, you will have the option to attend the studies in person or virtually via Zoom. There will be two sessions: 9AM and 6PM. The day of the week is yet to be determined. Those who choose to attend via Zoom will watch the video at their convenience. (There will be a training session.)
The cost to register for this Bible Study is $20.00. This includes the workbook, online workbook and online access for one year to the eight 35-minute videos.
For more information, contact Pat Gandy or Clauriste Byles.
The first class will be Tuesday, February 16 at 9:30 AM for those wishing to attend the morning session and the night class will begin Thursday, February 18 at 6:00 PM. Those who choose to attend via Zoom will watch the video at their convenience. There will be a Zoom training on Wednesday, January 27.
