Fall 2023 Groups
Gallagher/DeMasters Group
Wednesdays at 6:30pm | Begins September 6th
We are a group of women (ages 30-50) who will meet together for fellowship and discuss and apply the previous week's sermon to our lives.
Lang / Ringwald Group
Tuesdays at 6:00pm | Begins September 12th
We are a group of women ranging in age from 40's to 70's at all different stages of life and families. We are reading through the Bible chronologically, and will be starting the New Testament in October. We read the passages at home then discuss what we’ve observed. Our goal is to “do life” together, by growing closer to God through Bible reading and discussion. We make our group meetings a priority, and pray for and encourage each other. In addition to our weekly meetings at church we’ll occasionally meet other times and places to stay connected socially and grow friendships. This group meets at Highlands in the Special Needs Adult Room of Student Building.
Widows' Group
Saturdays at 5:00pm | Begins September 16th
This group is a connection point for widows - a safe haven where widows can recreate and reimagine their new season, to grow, heal and move comfortably toward thriving again. Our passion is for widows to feel loved, seen and heard, and to be the center of resources for their needs—whether it be physical, spiritual, or emotional. This group is led by Vika Tuanaki; we meet the third Saturday of each month at a location to be determined for fellowship and social events.
Highlands Moms Group
Tuesdays at 9:30am | Begins September 12th
Come and be encouraged as we desire to help support moms through the journey of motherhood! Motherhood can be a combination of new emotional experiences, new challenges, and our hopes and dreams for our children. Embrace it, enjoy and cherish your season of life as we learn the biblical importance of being a mom, meet new friends and find support for each other. Childcare is available ages 4 and under!
Fall 2023 Classes
Chronological Bible Study
Studying the Bible chronologically puts the books, chapters, and verses of scripture in historical order. The benefits of reading the Bible this way helps us understand the story better. We gain a clearer and broader picture of the main character-God and we avoid major gaps in our understanding of God's redemptive plan for mankind.
Starting at the beginning creates a foundation that allows His story to unfold progressively revealing who He is and His astonishing plan for the human race. ALL classes use the NIV Daily Chronological Bible edited by F. LaGard Smith. It can be purchased on Amazon at this link.
You do not have to take the classes in order.
