Study: What is the Bible?
How often have you thought, “I don’t even know enough about the Bible to attend a Bible study - I’d be completely lost.” What Is the Bible? is a small-group study made exactly for you. This study will help you to explore some of the best-known Bible passages and to discover some of the many ways that they can be interpreted. You will learn how the Bible as we know it was put together, who decided what parts were in and what parts were out, and where to go with your questions about the wonderful, baffling, beautiful, unsettling book we call the Bible.
Workshop: Generosity in a Changing World
Sunday, Sept. 14
11:00am - 2:00pm
This workshop, led by Rev. Andrew Warner, president of the Wisconsin Foundation, will invite participants to reflect on their own spiritual practice of giving and share information on the changing landscape of fundraising, particularly in local congregations.

Family Connection Friday
Friday, Sept. 26
5:30pm - 7:30pm
Family Connection Friday is a new opportunity for children and youth of all ages to experience faith formation alongside their trusted adults. Join for dinner and a Bible story and activity all together. Then, children and youth will continue their fellowship, activities, and games, while adults take time apart to discuss their experiences of parenting and faith with one another. We will close with a brief time of prayer to lift up our minds and hearts to God as one. All MCC members, friends, and friends of friends are welcome.
