SUMMARY:Messy Church
DESCRIPTION:Scripture Passage: Jonah 1-4. \nSeptember 13 • 4:00–5:30 PM \nGod gave Jonah one job—but Jonah had other plans! He tried to run from what God was asking him to do\, only to discover that God wasn’t finished with him yet. \nIn this Messy Church session\, we’ll dive into Jonah’s story through games\, crafts\, and a prayer station\, exploring what happens when we try to run from God’s call and how God continues to call us\, guide us\, and offer grace. \nCome join us as we discover what Jonah’s story has to say about listening to God\, responding to God’s call\, and extending God’s grace to others. \nAll ages are welcome!

SUMMARY:Parenting Group
DESCRIPTION:For Parents & Caregivers \nParenting takes a village—and we’re grateful to have one! This fall\, we invite all parents and caregivers to join our Parenting Group\, a welcoming space to talk\, listen\, share\, learn\, laugh\, and support one another through the joys and challenges of parenting. \nThis fall\, we’ll explore When Kids Ask Hard Questions\, Volume 2: Faith-Filled Responses for Tough Topics\, edited by Bromleigh McCleneghan and Karen Ware Jackson. \nThis thoughtful collection brings together a variety of short essays from different voices\, offering faith-filled perspectives and practical wisdom for responding when children and teens ask difficult\, complicated\, or unexpected questions. Together\, we’ll reflect\, share our experiences\, and consider how we can create spaces where young people feel safe asking questions and exploring their faith. \nWhat makes this group especially wonderful is the community we have created together—a community grounded in trust\, care\, encouragement\, and the reminder that none of us has to do this alone. \nMondays | 6:30–7:30 PM \nFall Meeting Dates:\nSeptember 14\, 21\, 28\nOctober 5\, 12\, 26\nNovember 2\,16\, 23\, 30\nDecember 7 \n Childcare Provided! \nBring your questions\, your stories\, your successes\, your struggles—and come as you are. Childcare is provided\, so you can have this time to connect and recharge. \n Can’t Join Us In Person? \nNo problem! We’d love to have you join us from wherever you are. If you’d like to participate but can’t be physically present\, just let Susan know and we’ll make sure you receive the Zoom link. \nCome be part of our parenting village this fall! We look forward to growing\, learning\, and supporting one another along the way

SUMMARY:Thursday Afternoon bible Study
DESCRIPTION:Looking for a place to grow in your faith\, ask meaningful questions\, and connect with others? You’re invited to join us for Thursday Afternoon Bible Study\, beginning September 10. \nOur first study of the season will be Half Truths: God Helps Those Who Help Themselves and Other Things the Bible Doesn’t Say by Adam Hamilton. \nWe’ve all heard familiar sayings like “Everything happens for a reason” or “God helps those who help themselves.” They may sound biblical—but are they? In Half Truths\, Adam Hamilton takes a thoughtful and engaging look at several common phrases\, exploring the truth they contain\, where they can lead us astray\, and what Scripture actually teaches. \nWhether you’ve participated in Bible studies for years or are simply curious and looking for a place to begin\, you are welcome. Come as you are\, bring your questions\, and join the conversation. \nThursday Afternoon Bible Study\nSeptember 10–October 15\n1:00–2:30 p.m.\nRoom 207 \nNo registration is needed. \nThe book is available through Amazon for approximately $9.89 or may be ordered through your local bookstore. \nFor more information\, contact Linda Mahan at 734-478-6894. \nWe hope you’ll join us as we discover together how moving beyond easy answers and familiar sayings can lead us toward a deeper\, more thoughtful faith.
