Women's Bible Study Thursdays
"Focus on Luke" will be our women's study for fall. We will meet on Thursdays at 11:30am. Please bring a sack lunch. Holy Eucharist is at 1:30pm after the study.
Some interesting definitions that were discussed the first day of study:
- Gabriel means "God is my Hero"
- Joshua (or Jesse, a derivitive) is another name for Jesus and means "God has Saved"
- John means "God has shown favor"
- Theophilus means "Friend of God" or "Lover of God"
- Horn means "Power"
- Consolation means "Give relief to the poor and needy and/or the crushing of the common Jewish person or oppressed people"
Recently we discussed the very large subject of "FAITH" and talked about the following definitions:
- Nature of faith is acceptance of things unseen
- Rewards of faith are peace in your heart, knowledge of Jesus' help, knowing God is with you, you need God's guidance, a happy spirit, and good Christian friends
- Perils of faith are danger - in some places in the world you may lose your life for your faith
Please come out and enjoy the fellowship of the ladies of St. Peter's parish!
