WOMEN’S BIBLE STUDY starting September 14
This fall, we’ll study the Book of Deuteronomy. Through this last book of the Pentateuch, we see the unfolding story of redemption as God chooses a people to set apart for his specific purposes. We’ll look at this Old Testament book through a New Testament lens, seeking to better understand God’s revelation of himself and what this means for us today.
Next spring, we look forward to diving into Luke’s gospel and seeing the compassion of Christ revealed. We anticipate a joyful and fruitful journey together this year. We hope you’ll join us! To register, visit our website.
MORNING: 9:30-11 a.m. EVENING: 6:45-8:15 p.m.
COLLEGE CHURCH FELLOWSHIP MEALS

FRIDAY NIGHT SUPPER on August 26 orSATURDAY MORNING BRUNCH on August 27
As we gather as a church and a community, we are excited to continue our Fellowship Meals. These meals are friendly and informal ways to meet one another. Come and enjoy a delicious potluck meal and a sweet time of fellowship together. This isn’t a gourmet supper club, but an opportunity to meet new people or deepen existing relationships in the College Church family. All welcome. We need both hosts and guests—especially hosts—willing to open their homes (or backyards, patios, nearby parks).
Choose a Friday evening supper (for adults only) or a family brunch on Saturday (for families/all ages). These gatherings are for good food, good conversation and ideal opportunities to meet more people in our church family.
If you have questions, please contact Daniel Conroy at (630) 200-8378 or conroypdaniel@ gmail.com
Sign up by August 10 to be part of these church potluck meals.
