Lenten Book Study 2022

This year we will be learning about and discussing six women from the Old Testament (Jephthah’s Daughter, The Shunammite Woman, Naomi and Ruth, Esther, Judith) in five sessions. Some will be familiar and some probably will not. All have a story to tell and things to teach us about their time and place, their beliefs and spirituality, and their relationship with God and their people. Details about the book can be found below.

Meetings will take place each Monday during Lent beginning on March 7 and continuing March 14, 21, 28, and April 4 at 7:00 pm. We will be meeting at the home of
