Morrow has two book groups for women (Sisters in Faith) and both will be looking at Inspired by Rachel Held Evans. One meets on Monday nights at 7:30pm and the other on Thursdays at 9:30am. I hope you’ll come to one or the other.
You can get the book on amazon, audible and we will provide a reading guide. The Monday night group will start the study on October 22nd, and the Thursday morning group on October 18th. Both run for 5 weeks — ending before Thanksgiving.
Rachel takes a look at the Bible again after moving from her evangelical upbringing to her move away from scripture and faith, and back to appreciating these stories again.
The book is a super easy read and often Rachel puts the reader in the middle of the stories.
I hope you’ll consider joining us for one or the other groups. Questions — 973-202-2615.Fall Bingo

"The Sixth Sense"
Morrow Church has 2 book groups for women
Thursday Oct 25, 2018 9:30 AM to 10:30 AM
Morrow has two book groups for women (Sisters in Faith) and both will be looking at Inspired by Rachel Held Evans. One meets on Monday nights at 7:30pm and the other on Thursdays at 9:30am. I hope you’ll come to one or the other.
You can get the book on amazon, audible and we will provide a reading guide. The Monday night group will start the study on October 22nd, and the Thursday morning group on October 18th. Both run for 5 weeks — ending before Thanksgiving.
Rachel takes a look at the Bible again after moving from her evangelical upbringing to her move away from scripture and faith, and back to appreciating these stories again.
The book is a super easy read and often Rachel puts the reader in the middle of the stories.
I hope you’ll consider joining us for one or the other groups. Questions — 973-202-2615.Congregate Lunch / Kosher Nutrition Program
