The Thursday Morning Women’s Study group meets at 9:30am in Room B111. The six-week study is “The Epic of Eden: Ruth Study” led by teacher, Professor Sandra Richter. For your information, this study will include 3 days of homework each week. 

Purchase book from Seedbed (www.my.seedbed.com). Cost is approximately $14.95.

Summary: The book of Ruth is simply a great story.  Life and loss, love and loyalty, intrigue, racism, and ridicule all find a place in this narrative.  The story is a challenging account of everyday lives lived with extraordinary integrity.  In Ruth and Boaz, we find two ordinary people, during the corrupt time of the Judges, who demonstrate what it means to make a difference in the ordinary circumstances of day-to-day life.  This study is not written for the standard churchgoer but for that person who has always wanted to do a Bible study but didn’t know where to start.  So, for you seasoned insiders, the tone of this study might seem a bit different.  For you, who still consider yourselves outsiders, this one’s for you.

Join us December 13th at 6pm for our Symbols of Christmas Family Event! 

We’ll travel to 5 stations to learn all about a Christmas symbol and what it 

means to the story of Christmas. This is a family event designed to help your 

entire family learn about the true meaning of Christmas. This is a FREE event, but please register!! 

Christmas Eve is almost here. Join us for Asbury's Christmas Eve Candlelight Celebration on Sunday, December 24th at 5 AND 7pm. Both services will be identical. All are welcome to worship with us as we celebration the birth of Jesus. Merry Christmas!

Join us every Tuesday morning at 9:30am for food & fellowship followed by prayer and Bible study at 10am in Fireside Room.  We are studying the Book of Ephesians in the Fireside Room.
