Growing Up Into Him

As many of you probably already know, God has given me a great passion for women's ministry - including women of all ages - and especially the ones just a few steps behind where I am! Over the last few months I have watched time and time again on Sunday mornings as Bro.Tim baptizes former students of mine - or they join the church - or they have just came to faith. I have often lamented that I let many of my students slip through my fingers in the classroom - that I didn't live my faith out in front of them as I should have. God has impressed on me now that He is giving me another chance - this summer.

You are invited to join us this summer for the "Growing Up Into Him" Bible study. We will meet on 5 Wednesday nights this summer and childcare is available! We will have class on the weeks that Rebecca will be teaching the children ages 3 - 5th grade and of course there is always childcare for 2 and under. While this class will be directed at ladies younger than I am (and that's quite a few now! :-)) all are invited to join us and I always need extra words of wisdom. There will be no homework (Yeah?) but we will dig deep into God's word this summer to see what He has to say about several different topics:

"Growing Up Into Him" Ephesians 4: 15 - Speaking the truth in love, we are to grow up in every way into Him who is the head, into Christ."

Wed, June 10 - Intro, Testimony, Background, "Where did the time go?"

Wed, June 24 - "Serving, it's not Just for Tennis Players!"

Wed, July 1- "Tithing & Giving - Making Cents in God's Economy"

Wed, July 22 - "Dress to Impress - Our Outer Adornment"

Wed, August 5 - "Identity Theft - Taking Back Our Roles as Wives and Mothers"


We will meet from 6-7pm each week. If you are looking to grow in your faith, learn how to live out your faith in everyday life with real purpose instead of just coming to church on Sunday, and are looking for sweet friendship, you have found the right group! Please invite anyone you think might want to join us and of course email me if you have questions!
