Opportunities for Study and Discussion:

Lenten Conversation Group:
Rev. Scott Campbell has chosen a wonderful Lenten resource by Professor Kate Bowler of Duke Divinity School. The daily reflections are called Bless the Lent that We Actually Have: 40 Days to Reflect, Pray, and Bless our Imperfect Lives. They are down-to-earth, spiritually uplifting, real life reflections. You can download these daily devotionals free at: https://katebowler.com/lent-2023-download/
Throughout Lent we will gather after the 9:30 am Sunday worship service in the Dunn Parlor to share our Lenten journeys with one another, reflecting together on our readings for that week. These are informal conversations that will last for approximately one-half hour. They will begin 15 minutes after worship concludes. Come to one or two or all of them. I know that you will find the conversation to be a blessing in your life.
Please call the church office at 872-7564 if you would like to sign-up or want additional information.
Wednesday Evening Adult Study:
Adult studies are normally held between September and May, each Wednesday at 6 PM in the parlor on the second floor. Subject matter ranges from Bible study to contemporary topics to studies related to the seasons of Lent and Advent.
We currently do not have a Wednesday Evening study scheduled.

Our Church Library:
If you would like to do some studying on your own (or would simply like a book to read for pleasure) we have a fine selection of books, audiobooks, magazines, and videos to loan. There are Christian classics and new releases, Bible commentaries and theology books, fiction and devotional reading, books on spiritual formation and books about justice issues, books on church history and books on the emerging church - and just about everything in-between. The library is located on the first floor, off the upper lobby.
Our library catalog is online at LibraryThing. Click here to see if we have a book you are looking for. Then again, you might want to simply stop by the library and browse!
