Bible Study Class

Pastor Deb Patterson will be holding a bible study based on the book “Invitation to the Old Testament” by Celia Brewer Sinclair and James D. Tabor. The first meeting will be Sunday afternoon, February 19th at 4PM in the Fellowship Hall of Pleasant Grove Union Church. The first meeting had been planned earlier but was postponed due to weather. At the first meeting, plans will be made on whether to keep the Sunday afternoon meeting time for the future meetings, or if another time would be best for the participants. The course is an 8 week study and all are invited.

Pictures Added

I’ve added a section for pictures. If you click on the “History” link in the sidebar to the right, you should see a new entry entitled “Photos”, with subheadings there for different years. Currently there is a VBS photo from 1946, several from 2003, 2005 and VBS and homecoming photos from 2004. I’d like to add more as we find them. I should also mention there are several photos of the Church buildings past and present on the “Photos” page.
