Wednesday Morning Bible Study

Posted December 23, 2019 By admin

Our Wednesday morning Bible study continues on January 8th beginning at 9:30 AM. We have been working through a study written by our friend and last year’s Homecoming guest preacher Brad Hales. The fruit of this study is a wonderful discussion concerning our lives as disciples of Jesus. It doesn’t matter if you have not attended from the beginning; each week is a perfect opportunity to jump right in. Join the members of your church family in Bible study on Wednesday morning and be a part of this lively discussion we are having.
