There will be three Everybody Always studies taking place along with the message series that begins today. These are a 5-week, video-based study written by Bob Goff and published by Zondervan. All of these classes are open to all – a short study is a great way to try it out!

The Adult Sunday School Class meets each Sunday from 10:30 am until noon in the Bible Study Room. The group will discuss the Bob Goff Book Everybody Always from the Sunday message series every Sunday in September. Anyone interested in viewing the videos related to each chapter are welcome to stop in.

Wednesday Night Wonderers will begin their Everybody Always study on September 11. This group meets Wednesday evenings, from 6 - 7 pm in the Bible Study Room at Chapel Hill.

Everybody Always at the TNC - A 5-week, stand-alone class will be led by Pastor Janet at the Trinity Neighborhood Center, on Thursdays, from 1 - 2 p.m., from September 12 - October 10.
