Circle 1 – Monthly Women’s Study Group

Starting September 22, 2026

Then meets the 4th Tuesday of every month at 1:00PM in Room 108.

Circle 1 invites women of all ages to join us at the church for study and fellowship on the third Tuesday of each month, from 1pm – 3pm. Our first meeting will be Tuesday, September 15th. This year, we are studying Aging with Grace by Sharon W. Betters & Susan Hunt.

Whatever season of life you’re in, God has equipped you to flourish–to live in the transforming power and beauty of His grace. As we age, we can easily lose sight of this message as cultural ideals glorifying youth take center stage. We will explore present-day and biblical examples of women who rediscovered gospel-rooted joy later in their lives. Equipped with a biblical view of aging, Aging with Grace will help you encounter a fresh the gospel that “is big enough, good enough, and powerful enough to make every season of life significant and glorious.”

Studying Angels: Finding Hope in God Who Reigns over Heaven and Earth by Melissa Spoelstra

The Bible speaks of angels often. They were present in the garden of Eden, and throughout the story of the Bible they appear to people with messages, encouragement, and tangible help. Angels ministered to Jesus after His temptation and before His crucifixion, and they shared the good news of His resurrection. Despite their frequent appearance in God’s Word, our impression of angels is more often shaped by the myths and misconceptions that have developed over the centuries.

In this 8-session Bible study, we will traverse the terrain of Scripture from Genesis to Revelation to learn about angels—who they are, what they do, and what they have to do with you. There’s no reason to fear or ignore what’s happening in the supernatural, unseen realm—we can live with confidence that God is in control of it all. Angels is a call to put your hope in the God of angel armies who reigns over heaven and earth.
