Summer Midweek Classes Begin June 20
Steadfast Love by Lauren Chandler
led by Katrina Daughtry and Janet Turk
Room 210/212 - 7 week study , 7-9pm
There are times when worship overflows effortlessly from a heart full of gratitude and praise. And there are times when God seems far and we feel we have nothing to offer. We are tired, thirsty, and caught in the waves of a tumultuous sea. But this is when God shows us His steadfast love.
Psalm 107 is a call to worship. It reminds us that each season of life is an opportunity to reveal the anchor of our souls. In this study, learn to face each season of life with courage and trust in Jesus, and discover how tests in our journeys of faith reveal the true condition of our hearts. For there is no fear for the one who fears the Lord, the one whose soul is anchored in His steadfast love.
The Wesley Class Meeting
led by John Hammer
Room 202- On going.
John Wesley's original small groups focused on a single question: how is your walk with God? During the century when these groups flourished, Methodism grew from 3% to 33% of Christians in the US, one of the largest
revivals in history. We began the first adult small group at NFUMC in Fall 2017. Eight members meet weekly on Wednesday evenings to discuss our weekly walk. As our time together continues, we are experiencing a growing trust in the difference a true walk with God makes and how being supported by loving Christians leads to a more Christ-filled, intentional life.
Nursery available birth-Age 4.
