This is a group comprised primarily of young moms, but ALL women are invited to join us for this time of study and devotion which usually meets on the 1st & 3rd Wednesday mornings of the month. We are now studying the Book of Esther using Life Lessons with Max Lucado.  Our final meeting dates before summer break are:
May 21st, June 4th & 18th, 2008.

THURSDAY MORNING

8:45-9:15 am - Prayer Group - Church Library
Led by our pastors and a dedicated group of lay people, this group meets year-round for a simple morning service of quiet, centering prayer and readings of the week's lectionary scriptures.  Names from our church prayer list are lifted up, as well as individual specific prayer concerns of the day.  If you would like to request prayer for yourself or someone you love, you may call and speak to one of our pastors at 203-775-1259 or e-mail the church at office@uccb.org.

THURSDAY EVENING

6-7:30 pm - Women's Study - Upstairs Kitchen
This group meets weekly for a light, shared supper around the table -- followed by discussion of a current book, Bible study, or other curriculum chosen by the group.  Through the month of May, they are watching a DVD series that untangles historical and biblical fact from fiction in Dan Brown's best-selling novel "The DaVinci Code."  They will be on break during the summer months of June-August.  Watch this space for more information about a new study beginning in Fall 2008.

SATURDAY MORNING

8:00 - 9:00 am - Men's Fellowship - Fellowship Hall
Join us for breakfast, prayer, and exploration of various study topics. 
All are welcome, so bring a friend!

Faith Journey Group
This group enters into a seasonal covenant to study together on a journey of discipleship through a 10-12 week series.  Led by our senior pastor, it meets as two separate groups in our Church Library -- one that gathers from 5-6:30pm Sundays and another that meets 9:30-11am Thursdays. Using a variety of methods -- prayer, Bible study, guided meditation, art, writing -- we explore questions about the Bible and our Christian faith, connect with other seekers, and wrestle with some tough spiritual issues. Watch this space for information to find out more about joining a new group that will form in late summer for the Fall season.  If you have questions, please call the Rev. Bryn Smallwood-Garcia at the church office, 203-775-1259.
