Parenting Group: Getting a little help to be a better parent is a good thing. Videos and discussion are used to sharpen your parenting and relationship skills.
Women's Bible Study | Jeannette Brennan: Join us as we study 1 Corinthians, featuring video teachings from Jennie Allen. This Bible study will help you discover what it means to live a risky, others-centered life. Book cost is $17.
Precept Women's Bible Study | LuAnn Turbiak: "Galatians - Who Has Bewitched You? Why and How?" As the good news of Jesus spread across the Roman world, Jews and Gentiles were becoming believers. A struggle began over what it meant to be a Christian and live under grace. Galatians clearly defines the relationship between law and grace, and how Christians live under grace. Book cost is $17.

Community Bible Study: CBS will study Exodus, Leviticus, and Numbers this fall. These books tell the story of how God delivered His chosen people, the Israelites, from Egyptian slavery and established them as a new nation. They also tell the story of God’s faithfulness to weak and sinful people like us. Themes for application to our lives include doubt and faith, complaining and grace, crisis and intercession, and failure and repentance. Community Bible Study meets from September to May on Thursdays at 9:15 a.m. To register, email Kathy Zirolli or call 860.673.8852. Starts September 12.
