Sister's Bible Study
Sisters Bible study will be gathering to discuss our winter book, What's So Amazing About Grace? by Phillip Yancey - on Tuesday, March 7 at 4:45 pm in the parlor (room G-2).
Women of all ages are invited to be a part of the next series on beginning Tuesday, March 14 at 4:45 pm in room G-2, using the book Mosaic: When God Uses All the Pieces, by Shane Stanford. This is a Lenten study that will carry us through Easter.
Here's more about the book:
In this Lenten study, popular author Shane Stanford examines how the God of the universe uses the broken pieces of our lives to reframe our purpose, turning our discarded hopes and dreams in to something beautiful and useful - a mosaic in which God uses all of the pieces. The author says, "This journey will take us along the same path Jesus walked in the days before and days along his own journey to Jerusalem. We will see the similarities to our own stories and the lessons we should pick up, like pebbles along the path."
The cost of the book is $10, and books will be available in the church office later next week. If you need child care for young children, be sure to contact Marti Patterson at childed@firstumcfranklin.org. For additional information, contact Margaret Freeman at assocpastor@firstumcfranklin.org.
