Good morning Ladies

Hope you are having a very blessed week. it seems a little cooler than normal this year already. But maybe it’s just me. I’m starting to see colors in some of the trees, a clear sign of changing seasons.

We will be finishing up with our current read, Accidental Saints by Nadia Bolz-Weber. I must say I have enjoyed her insight more than I thought I would. And found a few ideas I thought I would not mind seeing St. John’s do. We will be reading the last 3 chapters of the book— starting with chapter 17 page 163 to the end of the book.

We will then be taking 3 weeks off before we start our new book.

The new book is: If The Church We’re Christian by Philip Gulley

We will be starting this book Oct.17th.

Girlfriends is open to anyone who would like to join us. We meet on Tuesday nights at 6:30p on zoom. You do not have to be a member of St.John’s church to join our group. We welcome all who enjoy reading and discussing books. If you are interested in joining girlfriends you can talk to Barb or myself(Diana) or call the St.John’s church office( 616-453-2497) and leave your information- that will be passed on to us.
We send out a new zoom link and information on where we are in the reading each week, so please make sure we have your email address.
