Ladies Open Door Summer Bible Study! Beginning Wednesday, May 18th @ 6:30pm. In-person & Zoom Sessions – More info to come. This 5 week study will cover the book The Red Sea Rules by Robert J. Morgan. Life is hard. It is certain that we will face difficulties, and that God will allow them, as He allowed the Israelites to become trapped between Pharaoh’s rushing armies and the uncrossable Red Sea. But just as certain is the fact that the same God who led us in will lead us out. As The Red Sea Rules makes clear, He is in control. Books available at the Sign up table in the main lobby for a suggested donation of $8. Sign up today! Childcare available upon request at sign up.
