Ladies, we have three new opportunities for you coming this summer. There will be a new Bible study and two book clubs happening, so keep reading to get the info!
Women’s Summer Bible Study (Starting June 21st)
In His Image by Jen Wilkin, led by Molly Rayner
Wednesdays from 9:30am-11:15am starting June 21st (through July 26th)
“In His Image” presents a biblical & practical explanation of 10 attributes of God which He desires to develop in us as His image-bearers. Jen Wilkin has packed this book with theological insights, pastoral wisdom, real-life applications & humor that we can all grasp, enjoy & apply. Please join us!!
Please purchase your book and bring it to the first meeting.
There will be childcare available, but you need to indicate that you need it so we know how many helpers to have. You can sign up for this study at the Ministry Table on Sunday mornings or right here:
We are also in need of childcare helpers! We need 3 people each Wednesday, but you do not have to help EVERY Wednesday. You can pick and choose the dates you’re available or would like to help. Being able to offer childcare really is a service to our young moms that have a really hard time getting connected in these studies due to their kiddos. You can sign up to help with childcare right here:
Women’s Summer Book Club
First Book: Cold Tangerines: Celebrating the Extraordinary Nature of Everyday Life by Shauna Niequist
Our Quest ladies are invited to take part in a simple book club this summer. They’ll be working through two different books throughout June and July with only one meeting at the end of each book. The first book is Cold Tangerines: Celebrating the Extraordinary Nature of Everyday Life by Shauna Niequist.
Shauna Niequist calls us to see the beauty, hope, and dimension in our ordinary days through the life-giving practice of celebration.
Cold Tangerines is beautiful narration of Shauna’s journey as a young writer, wife, and mom making peace with herself and crafting a life that celebrates the extraordinary moments hidden in the everyday. Throughout each story echoes the heartbeat message that the normal, daily life ticking by on our streets and sidewalks, at our dinner tables and in our late-night talks–is the most precious thing any of us will ever experience.
With her signature warmth and vulnerable storytelling, Shauna offers a feast of thoughtful reflections on the small moments that make up the human experience, the spiritual life, and things that seem ordinary but just might be sacred after all. She invites us into a new way of living with the awareness of God’s movement gracing every part of our day.
If you’d like to be a part of this group, please purchase your book and have it read by the meeting on Monday, June 26th from 6-9pm. The group will meet at Quest in the lower level. Please sign up at the Ministry Table so they know how many to plan on for an evening of discussion, food and fun!
Cold Tangerines can be found on Amazon, ThriftBooks, ChristianBook, or even at your local library. There are different covers depending on when your version was published.
Second Book: The Yada Yada Prayer Group (Book 1) by Neta Jackson
What do an ex-con, a former drug addict, a real estate broker, a college student and a married mother of two have in common?
Nothing, or so I thought. Who would have imagined that God would make a prayer group as mismatched as ours the closest of friends? I almost didn’t even go to the Chicago Women’s Conference—after all, being thrown together with five hundred strangers wasn’t exactly my “comfort zone.” But something happened that weekend to make us realize we had to hang together, and the Yada Yada Prayer Group” was born! When I faced the biggest crisis of my life, God used my newfound Sisters to show me what it means to be just a sinner saved by grace.
If you’d like to be a part of this group, please purchase your book and have it read by the meeting on Monday, July 31st from 6-9pm. The group will meet at Quest in the lower level. Please sign up at the Ministry Table so they know how many to plan on for an evening of discussion, food and fun!
