Women’s Drop in Bible Study
December 12 10:00 - 11:30 am
The Trinity Women’s Ministry aims to connect women with other women, working to build one another up in Christ and to build positive, strong, and healthy relationships with God and with others (Proverbs 31).
Our goal is that women will be able to speak with wisdom, trust in the Lord, be hardworking, teach the Gospel, and care for others (Proverbs 31:26-29).
Led by Kathy Zappitell: 2nd & 4th Thursdays 10:00am
All are welcome to our drop-in Bible study! Come as you are to this no-homework, casual environment Bible study where you can meet old and new friends. This study is in our Meeting Lounge and is perfect for women who want to meet Thursday mornings and drop in as their schedule allows!

A 7-session Bible Study. Imagine walking the dusty roads of Galilee with Jesus of Nazareth – braving jostling crowds just to touch the edge of His cloak and hear Him say, “Take heart, daughter, your faith has healed you.” We will be studying Jesus and Women by Kristi McLelland, who will transport us back to Jesus’ world, following in the footsteps of the women who came face-to-face with the Living God. Books are available at Lifeway.com or Amazon.
Outreach to families who have lost premature babies or newborns, usually meets first Saturday of each month. Contact Janet Schaaf 586-566-0077.
