With the return of snowbirds and commencement of so many fall activities, here is one more for you to consider. Once again, PebbleCreek Community Church (PCCC) is sponsoring a bounty of small group Bible studies, reaching out to the diverse Christian population within our community. Led by dedicated volunteers who serve as leaders, studies are organized for women, for men, and for mixed groups. Some follow study guides with DVDs, some focus on meeting the men and women of the Bible, and some simply take a book of the Bible and read one chapter each week with discussion over coffee and donuts. Most meetings take place in homes where the atmosphere is welcoming and the conversation is encouraging.
Anyone can join a study group; our community church is a gathering of diverse backgrounds. It is a melting pot of denominations that come together in one congregation—everyone is welcome. We learn from each other and share what the Lord is doing in our lives. We are all a work in progress; some have been in small groups for years, and others are looking for this new experience.
A summary of the different studies coordinated by our Education Committee appears on our website, www.churchpcc.org. The website also lists the Bible study leader who can be contacted for additional information. Of course, all are also welcome to attend our regular Sunday services starting at 9 a.m. each Sunday in the Eagle’s Nest Ballroom. Sunday morning services are always followed by a period of fellowship with Pastor Bob Ripley and his wife, Peggy, who are residents of PebbleCreek. Come, try us out, meet others—no obligation.
