Women’s Advent Book Study
“Joyful, Anyway” by Kate Bowler
Wednesdays on November 18, December 2, 9, and 16
Led by Lisa Patterson
Come and explore the meaning of true joy, which the study book describes as “an unmistakable blend of gratitude, hope, and delight, which finds you even in the midst of sadness.” We are overwhelmed. Frightening headlines, illness, uncertainty, grief, and email. We are left wondering why, if we’re doing everything right, life still feels like an endless game of whack-a-mole. “Joyful, Anway” is bestselling author Kate Bowler’s bracingly honest exploration of this dilemma. Questions? Ask Lisa Patterson at lisa@standrewdenton.com.
Prime Time
First Fridays at Noon
Prime Time is a group of slightly older than middle aged party animals* (some members may be a few decades older) that meets for lunch once a month. Madness ensues until the inevitable mid-afternoon nap comes due. We usually meet on the first Friday of the month at noon at one of a variety of restaurants in the Denton area. Come join the fun, we’d love to have you! Contact Bob Halbach (bobandbetsyhalbach@hotmail.com) if you would like to be added to the email list.
