LADIES' BIBLE
STUDY
Wednesdays at 7:00 p.m. in the Parsonage
- "Becoming a Vessel God Can Use" by Donna Partow
- What Does It Take To Be A Woman Who Makes A Difference In Her World?
- "Do your spices have to be in alphabetical order?"
- What words come to mind when you consider what kind of "vessel" you
are? Crystal? Silver? Pewter? Antique? Clay? Chipped? Cracked? Broken? Do you
have any idea what kind of vessel you are? Do you have to be perfect? We will
see how God accomplishes extraordinary things through ordinary people who
believe God can and will use them-imperfections and all.

at the first study and the decaf coffee/tea is always ready! Questions? Call
Carol Hartley.
