Small Group Studies
Men's Study Group - This group has begun a new study based upon "A Disciple's Path". The group meets in the home of Brian Ebbers, Thursdays at 7pm. To participate contact Brian or Mike Gearhart or the church office.
Women's Wednesday Study Group - This new group began meeting on September 20, 2017, and meets Wednesdays from 7 to 8pm in the church parlour/conference room. Facilitators and study focus are flexible and vary as those attending establish directions. The group welcomes all interested people, regardless of church affiliation. Bring your voice to this safe place, sharing and listening to discussions on a variety of subjects.
Contact Pam Walker or the church office if you would like further details.
Women's Thursday Study Group - this group resumed meeting on March 2nd, 7 pm, in the church parlour, took a short break over Easter, then began again May 4th, 2017. This group has reached maximum size and is now closed.
If you'd like to form a new study, for women, men, or both, contact Mike Gearhart, Dave Gearhart, or Pam Walker - it would be great to have more small groups involved in intentional spiritual study! Talk is underway to form a Wednesday 7pm small group study beginning fall 2017. Contact Pam Walker or Judi White if you are interested in attending an August meeting to discuss what this group might entail.
Wellsprings - Wednesdays at 7pm, in the church parlour/conference room, is facilitated by Kathy Van Lente. This group is for women only, please.
