Study Group Readings:
All Uses Are Church Uses (2019):
This study topic is Uses, with the theme that all uses are church uses,
in the sense that all uses are our response to the Lord’s leading.
We will read about the highest uses, being the uses of marriage and of raising children;
uses in service to society in various occupations; uses of business of all kinds;
and uses after death.
The Sunday church service on January 6th and a class at the Feast of Charity on January 11th will introduce the program.
The Sunday church service at the beginning of each week will be on the same topic as the Study group for the week. After Sunday you should be able to find a recording of the service under “Audio Sermons” or “Video Services”.
Please read or listen to the daily readings before your Study Group meets. You can download them below or pick up printed copies at the church. If you do not have time to read all of the readings, click the “Show highlights” box on each page and read the highlighted portion.
If you need to find a Study Group to join, contact the Pastor’s office.
