SABBATH STudy - Begins August 25th
Yahweh Sisterhood Women's Bible Study is starting with a new study on practicing the Sabbath. Our study will begin on Thursday, 8/25/22, at 10AM until noon. You can join us by ZOOM (link will be provided to those who sign up) or in person in the Fellowship Hall.
The study will last from August until the week before Thanksgiving - November 17th. You don't have to come to each one. It is just fine to join us whenever you can.
There are two books we will be using in the study.
Sabbath by Wayne Muller - $10.00 Amazon
Celebrating Sabbath Bible Study (PCUSA) $10.00
Please see below for a description of the study.
We hope you'll join us for this examination of why we need a Sabbath.
In the nine lessons of this Bible study—with passages from Genesis, Exodus, Deuteronomy, Isaiah, Matthew, Luke, and Acts—we’ll consider Sabbath
• as a celebration, not a day of dreary formality
• as God’s intent for all of creation that includes busy women too
• as one day of the week, perhaps a Sunday
• as a time to surrender unhealthy striving and frantic busyness, and instead trust that God will provide
• as a reminder that life is precious and working too much is against God’s plans for our precious lives
• as a day devoted to community and justice and not exclusively to self-care.
Ultimately, Sabbath reminds us to honor God who honors us by giving us a day each week to reset our pace, our priorities, and our lives.
