Our studies welcome women to attend weekly - or - join in as available throughout their summer schedules. The chapters of these studies are intentionally independent and you will never feel lost when you join in anytime. Each week will be led by a rotating member of our summer team (Donna Narron, Patti Palmieri, Sharon Angus-Smith, and Marjorie Kraus). We open with prayer requests, spend time in prayer, read scripture, and discuss how we can grow through it.
Everyone is welcome to email their prayer requests this summer even if they are unable to attend one of the studies: dmnarron@live.com.
Please email any questions to Donna Narron (dmnarron@live.com).
