Community Group (“C Group” for short)! Beginning February 6^th, and running through March 13^th, we will meet on Wednesday nights in a casual, group like setting. We will start with a meal at 6:00 pm in the Fellowship Hall, then move to room 109 for a short devotion/lesson, then break into smaller discussion groups for about 30 minutes. It’s a great way to ease into a life group if you haven’t joined one. The lessons will go along with the upcoming sermon series, “Guardrails”.  Childcare will be provided.

Women’s Bible Study is on Wednesday nights. It’s a 12 week study focusing on women of the Bible and how they relate to women of today. We will meet at 6 pm in room 104. for more information, contact Melisa Frederick at mfrederick695@gmail.com
