Advent now has a Bible study group for women, which meets the 2nd and 4th Tuesday, from 1:00 – 2:00 pm at the home of Jeni Lahman.

To begin our discussion, we have picked a series entitled “Coping with stress”.   So far the response has been very positive, but there is always room for more.  This is a very low key ministry that everyone should feel comfortable.   The purpose of this ministry is to foster a better connection among ourselves; to support one another and to draw closer to God and to each other.  Feel free to come as often as you want.  If interested please email at jlahman1350@gmail.com.

God is Closer Than You Think!!

This series starts September 11 and classes meet 9:45 a.m. between services every Sunday in the Fellowship Hall.  Join us, share with us.

Pastor Saunders kicks off a 5-week Mid-Week Bible Study series beginning October 13 entitled "Meeting Jesus Again--For the First Time."  Please join us Wednesdays at 7:00pm.

Meeting Jesus Again -- For the First Time

We will meet at 7:00 p.m. Wednesday evenings at the Saunders’ home, 636 Latham Ct. (just north of Riverside Methodist Hospital).  Each week we will study one or two of the shortest books (1 to 4 pages) in the Bible.  What do they say?  Why are they canon?  Are they relevant for us today?  Join us for a relaxed evening of fellowship and the Word.
