Bible Studies
- Winter Bible Study “Book of Acts”. The new Christian church was filled with ups and downs. God worked to bring great numbers into his fold. The world also tried to keep God’s Word from spreading. One thing we do see, God blessed his church tremendously. Join us for a study of the book of Acts to learn about the growth of God’s church after his ascension. To join us for in-person Bible class, join us Mondays at 7:00pm and Wednesdays at 11:00am. Pastors are recording the Monday session and putting it on YouTube, Wednesdays at noon. An archive of classes including all the previous chapters are available on Youtube for those who want to review or who haven’t attended and want to catch up and join the study in person or online.
Easter Lilies Thank you to the Ladies Aid who donated the lilies that are on the altar.
