Even if you don’t know how to sew, but can operate a pair of scissors and/or an iron, we would love to have you! If we can increase our production, we will be able to bless even more people in the community.

Hope to see you there!

 


Fall Women's Bible Study

Tuesdays at 10am & Wednesdays at 6:30pm for 10 weeks

Beginning Tuesday, September 10th & 11th

Church Basement

We are going through The Wisdom of God, by Nancy Guthrie, book three in her “Seeing Jesus in the Old Testament” series. Wednesday evening's class will be a repeat of the Tuesday morning class, so you have a couple options each week in case your schedule changes.

ALL women are welcome, and it's never too late to join us, so please invite your friends! Each class lasts about an hour. 

This is an in-depth study of the Old Testament Wisdom Literature of the Bible, with the goal of understanding it in the way that Jesus himself taught the disciples to read and understand the Old Testament: with him at the center. As we see not only the wise principles for living in these biblical books, but also the wise person they point to, it will help us to understand the person and work of Christ more clearly which will prepare us to worship him more fully.


A Matter of Balance Classes

Mondays & Thursdays, beginning September 16th

12:30 - 2:30pm

Church Basement

Class is full, but will most likely be offered again in the Spring.

Many older adults experience concerns about falling & restrict their activities. A MATTER OF BALANCE is an award-winning program designed to manage falls AND increase activity levels.

This program emphasizes practical strategies to manage falls. 

YOU WILL LEARN TO:

  • View falls as controllable
  • Set goals for increasing activity
  • Make changes to reduce fall risks at home
  • Exercise to increase strength & balance
