Session 2 of the Tuesday Morning Bible Study Begins Jan. 28

Session 2 of the Tuesday morning ladies’ Bible Study will resume on Tuesday, January 28, 2014. We will begin our new study with our annual trip to Feed My Starving Children in Eagan. Meet at SSEFC at 9 am to carpool (childcare provided if needed). We will return by 12 pm. Contact Stephanie Buckland with questions at 952-240-4465.

The following Tuesday, February 4, we will have a kick-off brunch, and then continue each Tuesday after the brunch from 9:30 to 11:00 am in the Journey Room at SSEFC through April 29. Our study guide will be, Becoming a Vessel God Can Use by Donna Partow (Cost: $11 for the book). See book overview below.

Childcare during our study is provided for FREE for children Birth to Kindergarten. Register online here or just show up. Hope to see you at Bible Study! All are welcome to join anytime!

Book Overview: Partow’s transparent, vulnerable message impacts women in a profound way, showing them that God loves them, imperfect as they are. Women discover how God will transform them so that, whoever they are, they can make a difference in their worlds. Written in a 10-week study format, readers dig into Scripture, memorize it and apply it to their lives.
