LITTLE EXPLORERS: MOM’S BIBLE STUDY

Thursdays Beginning October 23 • 6:30 – 8:00 pm • Room 215 (Bldg A)

The Daughters of Grace

A 6-Week Bible Study on the Women of the Bible

Join the Little Explorers Mom’s Bible Study on October 16 in Bldg. A, Room 215, as they dive into The Daughters of Grace. Come connect with other moms, dive into God’s Word, and be encouraged in your own journey of faith and motherhood.
From the Old Testament to the New, the Bible highlights women from all walks of life—each playing a vital role in God’s story of redemption.
We’ll explore how these women responded to God’s call on their lives and how His steadfast love and grace showed up in the middle of their everyday struggles and victories.

Whether you’re navigating motherhood, work, or faith questions, this study is a powerful reminder that God sees you, calls you, and walks with you—just as He did with them.

The Study Guide can be found on Amazon or The Daily Grace Co.

BIBLE STUDY FELLOWSHIP

Tuesdays • 7:00 – 8:30 pm • Building C

This year’s BSF study, Exile and Return, invites both men and women on a powerful journey through the Old Testament—exploring how God’s people built His kingdom while living in a foreign land. Their story is our story. As followers of Christ living in a broken world, we too are called to build for His glory.

We’re excited to offer BSF groups for women this fall! This is an opportunity for women to participate in this life-changing study alongside our men’s groups—making it even easier to grow in faith together.

Participants in BSF may also enroll their children (ages 6–18) in the BSF Student Program, which covers the same scripture in an age-appropriate way.

Register your family today.

To register for the study, visit the BSF website at bsfinternational.org select the “Find A Group” option, and follow the instructions.
