Our weekly Bible study meets on Wednesday evenings from 7 to 8 PM in the Parlor. Please come, bring your Bible, and please bring a friend. For the next few sessions we will be looking at where the teaching in the Creeds comes from in Holy Scriptures. We will also examine why this orthodox teaching is healthy for our souls.

Our weekly study will meet on Wednesday evenings. For our first meeting on September 3rd, Chuck and Pat Baker have invited the group to join them at their home at 6 PM for a light supper, followed by the initial discussion led by Tom Donegan on the Dead Sea Scrolls Exhibition. Please give Pat a call at 787-5976 if you are planning to attend.

The Monday Night Bible Study will not meet through the remainder of the summer months. We will resume our Bible Study in September, so watch the bulletin for announcements regarding its day, time and place. In the words of the 1966 singing group The Happenings, “See you in September”!

We are continuing our study of The Revelation to John led by John Buckelew. The Adult Bible Study meets Monday nights at 7 PM in the Parlor. Just bring your Bible, and perhaps someone you know, to the study and see how the Holy Scriptures will speak to us in 2008.

We will resume our study of The Book of Genesis on Monday, January 7th at 7 PM in the church parlor. Clarence Bunting will lead the study from Chapter 26. The study is designed so that people may begin attending at any point. Just bring your Bible, and perhaps someone you know , to the study and see how the Holy Scriptures will speak to us in 2008. It will be helpful if people will have read Genesis Chapter 26 and even Chapters 27 and 28.

Gold, frankincense and myrrh may not be on your shopping list, but they were in fact the original Christmas gifts to Him whose birth we are preparing to celebrate. If you haven’t yet decided what to give Him this year, how about an extra hour of your time to know Him better?

Father Caldwell’s Bible class will be held on the three Advent Wednesday mornings at 11:10 AM in the Parlor after the 10:30 AM Holy Communion Service. The group will take a fresh look at the three conspicuously different Gospel narratives of Our Lord’s Birth:

• December 5th: Saint John’s proclamation of God’s Word made flesh in Jesus
• December 12th: Saint Matthew’s version of Christmas, too seldom studied in depth but likely more true to history
• December 19th: Saint Luke’s version, the most loved Nativity story

Put these dates on your calendar and be rewarded.
