Would you like to study scripture more deeply, but have difficulty finding the time? Then grab a cup of coffee and join fellow parents of nursery and Sunday School-aged children for a team-led, 30-minute exploration of passages from the Gospel according to Saint John. No preparation, keen discussion, and relevant application. The group will gather on Sundays (beginning September 29), from 10:15 to 10:45 a.m., on the second floor of the Church building. Nursery care for infants and toddlers, as well as supervised, age-appropriate activities for older children, will be provided in the Chapel of Saint Jude. For more information, contact parishioners Julia Ainsley, Megan Murton or Matthew Fredericks.
Bible Studies
Bite-Sized Bible Study
Thursday Morning Bible Study
Join fellow parishioners for an eight-part, team-led exploration of the Gospel according to Saint John. Utilizing N. T. Wright’s commentary John for Everyone (2023), the group will meet on Thursdays, September 12 and 26, October 3, 17, and 31, November 14, and December 5 and 19, from 8:00 to 9:00 a.m., in Keith Hall. Advance preparation for each
session is encouraged, but not mandatory. For more information, contact parishioners
Ernest Clark
or
David Straut.
Women's Bible Study
All women of the parish and their guests are invited to participate in a Bible study on the Book of Exodus. This captivating and poetic book tells the story of God liberating his people from slavery in Egypt and his gift of the law at Mount Sinai. These events were formative in shaping what it meant to be people of God. This narrative continues to be referenced, variously interpreted, and reimagined throughout the Hebrew Bible, the New Testament, and to the present day.
There will be four meetings during Epiphanytide and four after Easter. We will meet in Keith Hall on alternate Tuesdays from 6-7:30pm (January 14 and 28; February 11 and 25; April 29; May 6 and 20; and June 3), and those unable to attend in person are welcome to join virtually.
For the first meeting on January 14, we will read Exodus 1 & 2, and Psalms 13, 22, and 28 (or, if pressed for time, choose one of the Psalms).
As always, please join even if you do not have time to prepare. Please reach out
Deacon Tiffany Clark with any questions.
