You are invited!
Join us for the Presbyterian Women Bible Study on the second Thursday of the month at 10 a.m.. Meetings will take place on Zoom. Click here to join!
This season's study by Merryl Blair will be led Harriet Nelson. "What My Grandmothers Taught Me, Learning from the Women in Matthew's Geneology of Jesus."
From presbyterianwomen.org:
Tamar, Rahab, Ruth, Bathsheba, and Mary—Matthew names these women for a reason. How might Jesus have heard the stories of his grandmothers? What might the young Jesus have felt as he heard about his family? What might the stories of these women have added to his sense of identity, as part of a particular family in a particular time and place?
Have you thought about Jesus’ grandmothers? What can these Grandmothers-of-the-Faith teach us? Their stories will lead us into the gospel, the good news about Jesus Christ. By exploring these stories together, we will have a richer idea of what the good news is.
Invite a friend to join you! If you need the study or would like more information, please email Jan Iverson. Visit the FPC Website Calendar for the link to join.
