Griefshare Weekly
Support Gathering
Begins Tuesday, August 25 • 7:00 PM
It hurts to lose someone – find help at Griefshare. You don’t have to go through the grieving process alone. It may be hard for you to feel optimistic about the future right now. If you’ve lost a spouse, child, family member, or friend, you’ve probably found there are not many people who understand the deep hurt you feel. This can be a confusing time when you feel isolated and have many questions about things you’ve never faced before. Griefshare is a 13-week support group led by people who understand what you are going through and want to help. You’ll gain access to valuable Griefshare resources to help you recover from your loss and look forward to rebuilding your life.
Griefshare begins on Tuesday, August 25 – November 17 at 7:00 PM. The class will meet in FC 209/210. We are asking for a $20 love offering to help cover the cost of materials. You can register below, and if you have any questions, please reach out to Jessica Clifford.

Women’s Wednesday Study
Join us for our Women’s Wednesday Morning Bible Study beginning on Wednesday, August 26 at 10:00 AM in Founders Court!

The Book of James is one of the most practical and transformative books of the New Testament. We will discover that spiritual growth isn’t about striving harder but allowing God’s Word to shape every part of your life. The weekly homework can be completed in approximately one hour. Books will be available in the church office, or the LakeWorld store; the cost is $17 (please bring a check or exact change). All women are welcome and invited to join us!
