Fall Bible Study

​"The Parables of Jesus"

September 6, 2018 - December 20, 2018

​Our weekly Bible study, led by Rev. Kris Michaelson, takes place every Thursday at 11:00 a.m., in the Parish Hall.

After the Bible study, there is a Holy Communion service in the church at 12:00 p.m., followed by a potluck lunch in the Parish Hall.

All are welcome to attend.

​
​A parable is a fictitious or made-up story designed to teach a lesson through comparison. Parables are told so that only those who really care will come to know the truth. Remember, the disciples didn’t understand the parables, but they asked what Jesus meant after the crowds left.  Their hearts were soft and open.  Join us as together we seek God’s truth in sixteen of Jesus’ parables with soft and open hearts of our own!
