Play with Fire
Happening off-site in the Harleysville area (Monday's at 7:00pm)
In this five-session Bible study, Bianca Olthoff shows how God used fire in the Bible to reveal His presence to His people, lead them, refine them, and empower them. God uses that same ”fire” to burn away things in our lives that get in the way of His purposes—so that we can rise from the ashes and experience His new life.

Groups for Caring and Healing
It's OK That You're Not OK
On-site at Lancaster City (Monday's at 6:30pm)
We'll learn from author and therapist Megan Devine who offers a profound new approach to both the experience of grief and the way we try to help others who have endured tragedy. Together we'll debunk the culturally prescribed goal of returning to a normal, "happy" life, by replacing it with a far healthier middle path. As we work through this book together, we'll be invited to build a life alongside grief rather than seeking to overcome it. No matter what tragedy or hurts you've gone through in your life, or those in your life have gone through, this perspective and group experience will help us all in taking the best path forward.

Chasing Love - Online Care Group
Happening online (Thursday's at 7:30pm)
This study explores the heart of God through his word in order to develop an understanding of how to navigate the world and relationships. Broken hearts and sorrows are part of life, but how we respond to and recover from them rely on our understanding of God’s promises. Each week we will dive into the heart of God, how he sees you, and ways you can guard your heart and faith as you follow Jesus.
