Mama Bear Apologetics Book Study
Sundays, through May 23
9:00 AM / Room 29 (downstairs)
As parents, one of our most important jobs is preparing our kids for the real world. This is a call for moms to empower our kids to challenge cultural lies. We will cover topics such as, “God Helps Those Who Help Themselves,” “The Future is Female,” “I’m Not Religious, I’m Spiritual,” and “Follow Your Heart – It Never Lies!” Facilitated by Blair Brown.
Book available for purchase on Amazon.com or Christianbook.com. Author: Hillary Morgan Ferrer
RSVP to Blair to attend the study
Fellowship Hall
*NEXT MEETING: May 2*
Parents of middle school and high school students will gather together to be encouraged, share, and pray for our children, families, and the world as we look to Jesus as the author, sustainer and giver of true, abundant life.
For the 2020-2021 school year, socially distanced “Community Groups” will be meeting around the Richmond area outside of people’s homes (we will likely go virtual when it gets cold). While Bible study will be an integral part of weekly gatherings, building a sense of connection and community is of primary importance.
If you are not in a group, but would like to join one, please email Sarah Tisdale.
