Friday Morning Bible Study Group
This group will NOT meet this coming Friday, 8 July, but rather on the first Friday of Term 3, 15 July. The group will begin the 6-week series, “Six Steps to Loving Your Church—From the Ministry of the Few to the Ministry of the Pew”, on 15 July and continue it fortnightly thereafter. The Thursday night Bible study group that meets at Lemuel and Lilly’s has already completed the series, and found it most helpful in their understanding of the meaning and purpose of both the formal and the informal aspects of church on Sunday and in their attitude and approach to church on Sunday. The Session has been greatly encouraged and helped by their formal report to Session highly recommending the series. You are most welcome to join the Friday morning group for that series or to take up one of the other opportunities to do the series which will be offered in the second half of the year.
