Small Group - Bonnie Stephens Email/Text Leader
Day: Thursday Time of day: Lunch (Afternoon) Start Date: 01/05/2023
Description: Thursdays at 2:30 - 4:30pm, Bi-Weekly
We are a welcoming and loving group of active, older adults with children, grandchildren, and, in a few cases, great grandchildren. Among us are several widows and a widower who recently remarried. Whereas most of us have walked with the Lord and studied His Word for many years, we share a longing for a closer walk with Him and seek to obey His leading and respond to opportunities to minister to others. We pray for each other and with each other; we support each other in practical ways as needs arise.
We meet once every two weeks, but most of the ladies meet weekly for Bible study and most of the men do the same. Also, we gather for a shared meal every couple of months. What we study varies according to the one who is leading. For example, John Reid led us in a study of the book of Proverbs; Steve Crewdson and Ray Mabe took us through the prophetic book of Daniel; currently, John Stephens is helping us identify those important truths necessary for a close relationship with the Lord.

Through our study, we go one Book at a time, one Word at a time, so that we truly understand what the passage is saying and revealing to us. Our studies have been a true blessing!
