There are currently three regularly-scheduled bible study opportunities at St. John’s:
Sunday Morning Adult Bible Study
Pastor Albers leads this study that meets each week on Sunday mornings at 10:45 am in the Ladies’ Lounge. The group continues a survey of Matthew’s gospel through the month of February and in the weeks of March.
Women of the Word
This group usually meets weekly on Wednesday evenings, 6:00 – 7:30 pm in the Ladies’ Lounge. However, Women of the Word will be helping to facilitate our Lenten contemplation of prayer, hosting a Prayer Fellowship each Wednesday evening in March beginning at 5:30pm. A light soup supper will include some intentional time for prayer followed by the liturgy of Evening Prayer in the Sanctuary.
Men’s Bible Study
The final session of our “We the People” Bible study challenges us: Do we obey God or man? Certainly a question that should raise thoughtful discussion about our political system. We will meet at 8am on Saturday, Feb. 11 in the church basement. (Bring your coffee.) Since Roland Lovstad will not be attending, another volunteer will show the video and provide study sheets and maybe ask the first question to get discussion going. If you would like to help for a future study, please contact Roland (573-768-1401).
ALSO: Pastor Albers and Roland have briefly discussed weekly Men’s Bible Study on the Saturdays during Lent (Feb. 25, March 4, 11, 18, 25 and Apr. 1). The topic would be prayer and coordinate with the Lenten emphasis. If you have thoughts, email Roland at lovstadent@gmail.com or call 573-768-1401. The study concludes by 9:30am.
