New Middle School Bible Study with a Dramatic Flare!
This year we are starting some new Bible studies. The new Middle School Bible study will be on Wednesday evenings from 6:00-8:00. While this is in the same time slot as before, we are restructuring. We will eat dinner at 6:00 and have a short period of free time to play games. Following that, we will start a new drama ministry. These dramas will be rehearsed and prepared for on Wednesday nights, but will be performed in Sunday morning worship. We will have some students acting, while others will be working on props, costumes, script rewrites, etc. We may even involve puppets! While we are rehearsing, we will also be learning about the Biblical passages behind the script. We hope this will be an interesting way to involve our middle schoolers in learning about the Bible and exercising their creative tendencies, all while getting them involved in worship! Invite your friends – the more the merrier! Questions? See Pastor Nicole or Becky Abert.
New Senior High Bible Study and Movie Night
We are beginning a new Bible study for high schoolers that is going to be lots of fun! Each Monday night, you are invited to come to Patti Leppert’s Home (insert address) for a Bible study followed by a movie. On the first Monday of the month, there will be pizza! What a great way to have fun, fellowship with friends, and learn about the Bible. Need more info? See Pastor Nicole or Patti Leppert!
