📖 WEDNESDAY NIGHT BIBLE STUDY
Join us at Beacon of Hope United Methodist Church for our Wednesday Night Bible Study! We gather together virtually via Zoom from 7:00 pm to 8:00 pm.
This engaging and enriching study offers a wonderful opportunity to:
🌿 Delve deeper into God's word
🤝 Discuss scripture
💖 Grow in faith with fellow believers
❓ Explore questions of spirituality
Led by our knowledgeable and passionate leaders, these sessions provide a supportive and welcoming environment for participants of all ages and backgrounds.
📚 Jonah! Learn the rest of the story!!
You know that Jonah was swallowed and thrown up by a great fish (it never said whale, you know...). There is the whole 'rest of the story' (if you remember that radio story by Paul Harvey...) that is fascinating as well. Join us, even if it's only for the book of Jonah, starting Wednesday, January 8th, 7:00PM - 8:00PM.
I am very good about ending promptly at 8PM, so it will take only an hour of your time. And isn't Jonah worth it? Hope to see you there!
We invite you to join us as we journey together in pursuit of spiritual growth and enlightenment.
