The Wednesday Study group is an adult class that meets to grapple with Scripture or books on faith in a seminar-type study with discussion and sharing. The class meets from 10 – 11:30 am in the chapel, September through May.
On March 4, the class will begin discussing The Letters to the Philippians, Colossians and Thessalonians by William Barclay. For the time being, the class will only be discussing the Letters to the Philippians.

Here are William Barclay’s offerings on Paul’s letters to the Philippians, Colossians, and Thessalonians. Though written to the faithful in years gone by, Paul’s words come to life for readers today through Barclay’s own translation and enlightening commentary.

Many in the group also stay for the 12 pm worship service in the chapel, to share prayers and the sacraments of healing and Holy Communion.
