New Ladies’ Evening Bible study!
Beloved Disciple, The Life & Ministry of John by Beth Moore, Tuesday Evenings 6—8 PM; September 9 — November 25. This 11-week, interactive study includes personal, daily assignments and weekly, video-centered group sessions. John referred to himself as “the disciple whom Jesus loved.” Just as Christ took John on a lifelong journey into the depths of His love, He will do the same for you. The Bridegroom’s love is unmatched and inexhaustible, and He is waiting to lavish it on you, His beloved. Books are $16 — pick them up at the first session.

Pastor’s Sunday School Class: “What’s Unique about Lutherans?” is the name of an 8-week course taught by Pastor Setzer beginning September 14. This course is designed to be a “refresher course” for lifelong Lutherans, or a “Focus on the Basics” for those considering membership at St. John’s. It will help anyone to answer with substance the question, “Why are you a Lutheran?” We’ll look at how Lutherans worship and relate to other Christian denominations as well as other major religions of the world. The class will be held during the Sunday school hour. Please let Pastor Setzer or Janine, the church secretary know of your interest in registering for the course. Call the pastor at 704-607-9663 or 704-552-8965.
