Women’s Circles Bible Studies — The May study is “From Generation to Generation: A Two-Way Blessing”.  Scripture is from Genesis, Exodus, Luke and John. How does one generation work with another – now and in biblical times? What values have we learned from our own mother’s and grandmother’s stories? Have there been any conflicts among age groups? What can be done to nurture two-way blessings between generations? Call the hostess if you wish to attend the circle.

The magazine of Women of the ELCA “Gather” is used by the Circles for the studies. This magazine offers a mix of articles, theological reflections, devotions and stories of comfort and challenge that help readers grow in faith and engage in ministry and action.  The church has three copies available at the beginning of each month if you would like to try the magazine.
