Immersion in God’s Word is essential to spiritual growth; we believe Bible studies are one important way that we as Christians mature together and provide encouragement to each other in our spiritual walk. For this reason we strongly encourage members of our congregation to be active participants in at least one Bible study. Visitors are welcome to join us for any of these studies. We also provide mandatory catechism instruction for our children from grades 1 through high school. This program provides instruction in Bible history for the younger students and instruction in all the doctrines of the Bible for older students.

(Current topic of study: The book of Acts.)

Women’s Bible Study
This small group study meets at 10:00 a.m. on the second and fourth Wednesdays of the month from October through April. Their fellowship and study is specifically designed to encourage women to be godly wives, mothers, and servants in the church. The atmosphere of this study is warm and casual; joys and concerns are met with encouragement and generous servings of coffee and goodies. Nursery care is also provided during this study. Women always leave refreshed and inspired in their spiritual walk. (Current topic of study: The Book of Malachi)
