Join the summer book study: Ten Words to Live By by Jen Wilkin 

You may have heard: “Christianity isn’t about rules, it’s about relationship.” But what if God’s commands are actually life-giving?

Ten Words to Live By offers a fresh, thoughtful look at the Ten Commandments, showing how they invite us to live in joyful freedom, to love God and others well, and to anticipate the day when God will be perfectly worshiped for eternity.

Here’s how it works:

• When: Sundays after church, 12:15–2:00 PM on 7/27, 8/10, 8/17, & 8/24 (*no meeting on 8/3). 

• Where: Still finalizing location details - will be within close proximity to the school to make it easy after the service. 

• What if I’m traveling or not able to attend every week? No problem! People's schedules are busy in the summer, so even if you can’t make every session, come for the week or weeks you’re around.

• Book Study Format: We'll discuss the book over the course of 4 weeks. Ahead of the week's meeting, you'll read the chapters and then at the meeting we'll use the end of chapter discussion questions to help guide conversation. While the content is rich, the chapters are short and the book is a quick read!

Women’s Summer Brunch: Anchored in Peace

Life can feel uncertain, even chaotic — but what if we could face each day anchored in something unshakable?

Join us for a morning of connection and encouragement as we gather around the message of Philippians 4 on Saturday, July 12 at 11 AM. We'll explore how our beliefs about God impact our daily lives, how to center our minds on what is good, true, and lovely, and how to rest in the peace only Christ can give.

Whether you’re feeling anxious, curious, hopeful, or just hungry, come enjoy brunch, honest conversation, and time in Scripture with other women in a relaxed atmosphere.

You’ll leave reminded that God delights in providing for His children — and that includes you. Bring a friend, bring your questions, and come as you are!

Bring your favorite side dish and a blanket and meet us at the park on the 4th! We'll provide the burgers and hotdogs. Afterwards we will have a group walk over together to the waterfront to watch the fireworks from Morris Canal Park.
