Women’s Studies:

Mid-Week Ladies’ Bible Studies

During the school year, we have 6 women’s studies that meet throughout the week. All of the women’s groups will study through The Good Portion: Scripture and then transition to an inductive study of Mark’s Gospel.

TIMES AND LOCATIONS:

  • Tuesdays, 12:15-1:45 pm @ Cischke home (Houghton)
  • Tuesdays, 6:30-8:00 pm @ DeKryger home (Mohawk)
  • Wednesdays 10:00 am – 12:00 pm @ DeForge home (Lake Linden)
  • Wednesdays 6:45 – 8:00 pm @ Bethany Baptist Church, (Church Library) *
  • Thursdays 1:00 – 3:00 pm @ Black home (Dollar Bay)
  • Thursdays 1:30 – 3:00 pm @ Olson home (Hancock)

These studies are intended to dig deeply into scripture. Bring your Bible, a pencil and a notebook. Contact the office to find out how you can get a copy of this year’s Bible study material or get more information on joining one of our groups. You can join at any time! Some of the advantages of participating in a mid-week Women’s study are getting to know other ladies more deeply, sharing what you are learning and the accountability to stay on track!

A great advantage to participating is being able to connect during the week to share what you are learning.
