Summer Bible Study
Have you ever felt like life was meaningless? That evil seems to win out over good? In a world full of pain and confusion, we’re all looking for answers. “A Season for Everything Under the Sun” is a study of Ecclesiastes which seeks to give some of these answers and try to think of a few others. The Study will be led by John Langenstein and will meet July 17th, 24th, and 31st (Monday nights) at 6:30 PM in the Sanctuary. If you are interested in the study, contact the Church Office at firstumc3@frontier.com
