Women’s Bible Study Workshop
This summer we will be studying the book of Amos! We will meet on Monday evenings from 7:30–9:30 from June 9 to August 11 (taking June 23 off for VBS). Each week involves watching an instructional video from the Simeon Trust First Principles course on your own, then we will meet in person to review the study skills and practice together using passages from the book of Amos. This class will be a great experience for new and returning students! Please sign up by Sunday. Contact Melissa Mackler with any questions.

A Few Minutes with a Puritan Podcast
A note from Pastor Joshua:
"I know sometimes reading books from a few hundred years ago can be difficult. But I personally have been so encouraged by the way these authors help us meditate on the Scripture and the Christian life, put Jesus and His glory on display, and help us live as citizens of heaven here on earth. So I am slowly reading through some really helpful old books on the Christian life and making comments and applications which I think could be beneficial to others in the church.”
