The girls' Bible study is a monthly gathering to encourage young women in their faith. As we study, discuss, pray, and spend time together we help each other grow in Christ. This year our theme is Friendship! We all want to have good friends and we all want to be good friends. And yet, good friends are hard to find. Thankfully, the Bible has much to say about friendship. Join us this year as we examine questions like: What is the purpose of friendship in the Christian life? What does a Christian Friendship consist of? And what practical steps do we take to become godly friends?
​
“Perfume and incense bring joy to the heart,
    and the pleasantness of a friend
    springs from their heartfelt advice.” Proverbs 27:9  NIV
