On Jan. 14 & 15, Bible Study Groups will begin a new series, studying the Gospel of Luke, which is read on Sundays this new liturgical year. There are two groups that meet in the Tomczak room in church – one on Tuesday evenings 7:00 to 8:30pm and, another on Wednesday mornings 10 to 11:25am. Newcomers are always welcome – no previous Bible study is required. Please get in touch with Mary Jureller so that she can order a book for you. Call or text: 315 382-8039, or email at giege39@gmail.com . You may also sign up in the back of church.
Those returning to the groups should let Mary know if you need a printed copy of the book – ebooks are available, and some may have the books from the previous study a few years ago: “Little Rock Scripture Study: The Gospel According to Luke, parts One and Two.”
