         We have two ongoing Bible Study groups. One, however, is on a summer hiatus, and will begin meeting again in the Fall. They were gathering every other Tuesday from 9:30 – 11:15am at the home of the Sacks in Fallston. The other group is a community Bible study connected to the exercise class that meets in our facility. It takes place every Monday morning after the class 11am, led by Judy Collison. Both of these groups are open to everyone who wishes to attend. For more information and directions, contact the church.
         Join our Men's Breakfast Group once a month as we learn from the baddest boy in the Bible, guided by "The Samson Syndrome" by Mark Atteberry. Our next breakfast is Saturday, August 16 at 7:30am, focusing on Chapter 7 - "Strong Men Tend to Repeat the Same Mistakes." Men take turns facilitating. Contact Gary Miller  for more info.

         After taking an August break, our monthly Book Club will next meet on Friday, September 19th at 7pm at the home of T. Albright. The selection this month is "The Year of Living Biblically" by A.J. Jacobs. For directions and more info, contact T. Albright. You can purchase this book online (see above link) or in a local bookstore, or borrow it from the public library. Pastor Pete also has a copy which can be borrowed.

 A healthy lifestyle is important for all of us.
Visit "Dr. Bob's Corner" for some good wisdom in this area.
Bob Duncan grew up in this church and is the 'doc' of some of our folks.

Earthquakes, hurricanes, tsunamis...  Continue to remember those in need... Got "compassion fatigue"?  Innoculate yourself with Christ! Be a cheerful giver.

Thus far in 2008 we have sent 185 hygiene kits and 115 school kits to CWS.  Groups from this congregation head to the Brethren Service Center in New Windsor, MD every month to volunteer with SERRV (the next opportunity is May 22nd - contact the church office  for more info). The Mid-Atlantic District Disaster Response auction (link has out-of-date info, but good descriptions, directions and pictures of past auctions) is on May 3rd in Westminster. In December of 2007 two of our members served in the Katrina rebuilding project through our district.
