FORMATION FOR WOMEN
MOM'S BIBLE STUDY
Tuesdays | 9:30a
Media Room, Windsor Campus
We gather in person to support one another in the trials and joys of motherhood. We select books to read and discuss through a spiritual lens. The group is comprised of moms of all ages, with a particular emphasis on those with small children at home. Nursery care is provided.
For more information, please contact Jessica Riels.
TRANSITIONS BIBLE STUDY
Tuesdays | 1:30a
Media Room, Windsor Campus + online
This Bible study is for any woman in transition—those new to being empty nesters, retirement, or any of the many other transitions in life. Together we read different books of the Bible, explore the books’ meaning at the time they were written and how the stories speak to our lives today. Some of us are new to Good Shepherd and others are long-time members, and we are glad to get to know each other and to have companions on the journey. We meet in person and virtually.
For more information and or for a link to join, please contact the Rev. Stanford Adams.
