Small Group Studies
Fresh Start Bible Study
This group is a great way to get your week off on a “fresh start”. Our time of fellowship and study starts at 11 a.m. on Monday mornings in our chapel. We are currently finishing up a book on rediscovering church after the pandemic. Starting May 1st through May 22nd, each Monday we will be looking at “The Belonging Project” which is an outreach program featured in “The Presbyterian Outlook” magazine. Come learn about the practice of belonging, the place of belonging, the conditions for belonging and the complexity of belonging and other topics. The church, post-covid and always is changing. We will examine this idea and what it means for us as a body of Christ moving into our new reality in the world. May 22nd will be our last meeting of the spring. We will not be meeting in June, July or August. Questions can be directed to Fred Barnes.
Jesus & Joe Men’s Fellowship
This men’s time of fellowship and study meets every Friday morning at 8 am until 9:30 am in Southminster House. We are currently watching the video series of the depiction of Jesus’s life entitled “The Chosen”. It is a fascinating look at the life and times of Jesus and his disciples. We discuss each episode and try to gain understanding of what being a disciple looks like in today’s world. All men of the church are welcome to join the discussion. Try it, you may just like it! Any questions can be directed to Fred Barnes.

The Sarah Circle meets monthly on the fourth Tuesday at 1:00 p.m. in Southminster House.
