Summer Small Group Study

Sharing our Faith Stories

Dive deep into the congregation-wide theme “Be the Light” this summer by joining a small group for food, fellowship, and Bible study. The summer Bible study opens biblically-based conversations about how to be relational, flexible, and respectful in sharing God’s story with others in our daily lives.

The kick-off to the Bible study will be Sunday, June 11. Sign up today at faithlc.org/bethelight or in the church Commons. You may choose to be assigned to a group or self-select your group. To foster good conversation, a group of 6-8 people is suggested for the study.

Mission Possible is the theme for VBS 2023.
