ADULT SUNDAY learning groups

A small group serves three main purposes: provides an entry point for the non-member; establishes a new or old member as a part of the whole, giving each person a sense of belonging; promotes growth in each person and prepares the way for a further and deeper understanding of things spiritual. Each group determines the time and place for meeting. 

All classes are open for new members.  Classes are held weekly beginning at 9:00a or at other times throughout the week.

Partners with Christ - Room 319 (Upper Level). Facilitators are Barb Callahan and Betty Davis.
Faith & Families - @9a - Dining Room Annex (Lower Level) - Weaving faith into families.
Christ, Conversation & Coffee - Dining Room - (Lower Level) - facilitator will vary. (Not Currently Meeting - Stay Tuned!)
Singers and Others - Room 326 (Upper Level) - Class facilitator is Martha Pool.

WOMEN'S MINISTRIES

They meet at 9:30am on the third Wednesday of the month @ 9:30a in Room 319 (Upper Level). They are currently using a Bible Study called Celebrating Faith. They have wonderful discussions and find the study challenging and intriguing. They always welcome new women to their group at any time. (Contact Martha Pool at 740-407-1708 or Muriel Ballou at muriel.ballou@sbcglobal.net)

The Book Club meets at 7:00pm on the second Sunday of the month in the Heritage Room (Main Level). Hope to see everyone!! (Contact Muriel Ballou at muriel.ballou@sbcglobal.net)

This women’s Bible Study meets the second and fourth Tuesdays of the month, 9 – 11am in the Dining Room Annex. All women are welcome to join at any time. Typically, several 6-8 week book/video studies are completed throughout the school year. Their studies have included many authors and presenters. This fall they are doing a study by Melissa Spoelstra entitled Isaiah, Striving Less and Trusting God More, a video series with a workbook for further study and discussion. This group is a combination of women from First Presbyterian Church as well as other churches in the community. In addition to study, they focus on prayer, sharing and support for one another.

Please consider donating disposable diapers, any size, to help Women’s Ministries make a difference in our community since the need for diapers for children of low-income families in our town is becoming critical. There is a greater need for sizes 5 and 6 diapers and Pro Advance Formula which can be found at Kroger and Meijer. The families at First Presbyterian Church have generously donated nearly 500 boxes of diapers and 50 packages of disposable wipes. Women’s Ministries will continue to donate the diapers to needed local agencies for distribution to God’s children so they may lead a healthier life! Again, thank you everyone, for all your generous donations of diapers throughout this year. It is truly appreciated!!
