CWBS (CENTER FOR WOMEN’S BIBLE STUDIES)
“Moved by the Spirit: A Study of the Book of Acts”
Today Christianity is the most populous religion in the world. Yet it began with just a handful of poor, uneducated farmers and fishermen. Have you ever wondered how this group of completely ordinary men and women with neither money nor military propelled a movement that would quickly change the world? Come join us this year as we dive into the book of Acts, the story of how God used his Spirit to create what we know as the Church. Prepare to be spiritually challenged, emotionally encouraged, and relationally blessed as we gather weekly to reflect on the movement of the Holy Spirit at the birth of the Church and in our own lives today.
Meeting Times & Registration
Register HERE by August 31. Nine small groups (including one Zoom group) meet weekly on Thursday mornings from 9:30–11:00 September 11 through March 12. A Wednesday evening group will meet from 6:30-7:30, September 10 through March 11. CWBS does not meet through the holiday season, from Thanksgiving through the New Year. A study guide may be purchased on the first day of class for $10.
Childcare for infants through age five is provided during all of our CWBS Thursday morning studies and monthly luncheons. Please pre-register for childcare when you sign up for CWBS. Wednesday night offers bible classes for all ages, infants through high school.
